Dont mix them tho otherwise they just cancel each other out.

As long as it's not purple! Either red/pink or blue etc. As mentioned mixing them cancels each other out. So for example, if you have blue atm and you only have access to red, you best flush the whole system and then re-fill with one colour.

just get comma or bluecol, and it should be changed every 12-24 months so dont waste more money on products saying it lasts ages
