What cutting fluid do you use in your Fogbuster?
I recently experimented with alcohol as a cutting fluid in my Fogbuster when cutting aluminum due to its environmental benefits. It worked really well. Tools stay nice and cool... maybe too cool, surface finish is great, and no residue or fluids to clean up since it simply evaporates. Using alcohol is actually quite common in Europe where environmental regulations are even stricter than here in the U.S. IMPORTANT side note. Never use alcohol as a cutting fluid when cutting steel based materials due to the risk of sparks / fire.
Two weeks after pouring alcohol into my fogbuster the reservoir started to crack (see attached images). I messaged Hench Mfg and they said that while they have customers that do use alcohol in their products, it only works with the one or two gallon Fogbuster models that use a Polypropylene reservoir. You also may need to replace the Buna N "O" ring in the sprayer head from time to time.
I'm not interested in upgrading my reservoir yet so I thought I would ask the community what their favorite Fogbuster cutting fluid is. What do you all like to use?
