In the toolroom where I work, we used to have Li'l Mister non pressurized reservoir misters. They caused a cloud in the room unpleasant to breath. We now use Fog Buster that uses a small amount of pressure in the feed bottle and it's much better for the surrounding air and much better to control. Kool Mist in those was not bad to work around but it wasn't great for lubricity. Drills going into aluminum would screech from rubbing. Also I found a lot of rust under the vise every time I took it off even though the mix was always rich. The Dascool coolant used for the flood coolant in the CNC's in the shop in the Fog Busters has worked well on all fronts, I never noticed rust using it. Joe
