Does anyone know the specific ingredients of MCT-5? If and when evaporation in a WC system occurs to a point where a refilling would be required, what would one use to refill?

An easy answer might be just plain distilled water. But not knowing the makeup of MCT-5, this could inadversly affect certain properties of the coolant. Perhaps deionized water?
 
Just keep an extra bottle handy. It is a water replacement, not an additive, so I wouldn't add water to it at all.
 
But depending on it's makeup, adding more MCT-5 may just reduce the concentration of water (deionized or distilled). And also, I'm not made of $$ :D

But it's definetly worthwhile to use since not only does it perform better than distilled in load temps, it also doesn't have enough conductivity to cause a short if a leak should ever occur.

eh? There should be no water at all in the loop. As the first reply said you use ONLY MCT-5 in your loop. No water at all.
 
I'm assuming MCT-5 itself contains water as a base or at least has some in it.

What I'm asking is what type of water is in the coolant? This way I can refill my loop without compromising the MCT-5.
