I'm looking for your opinion and hard-earned wisdom here.
I'm shopping for a new coolant brand and I started looking at the SDSs, particularly for Castrol MB50 and Sterlingcool 77....
And yeah there are some ingredients in there that don't sound good at all.
I don't want to constantly expose myself and coworkers to toxic chemicals or have to worry if I get some in my eye by accident...
But on the other hand I think of those over-the-top "known to the state of california to cause cancer and reproductive harm" warnings on everything, and I think of all the way oil and paint thinner and aluminum oxide dust that I'm exposed to, and I wonder if some fungicides and TEA in coolant is really going to be a problem.
What is your take?
