Synthetics
A true solution
synthetic fluid will be clear with a particle size of less than 0.000001mm (0.00000004"). It will be an excellent coolant but will have no
lubricity. It will typically have hard water tolerance.
A surface
active synthetic fluid will be translucent to clear. It will contain wetting
agents, which lower the surface tension of the fluid and enhance the lubricity.
It will have good rust inhibiting properties, and although it will have
a tendency to foam, this should not present a major concern.
