I want to build a mineral oil pc, I already have the aquarium and pc, but what type of mineral oil do I get. (I only need one gallon)
I thought about STE oil company, but I simply pay for too much shipping here in canada.
I came across this thing called R12 Mineral oil, can this be used for a aquarium pc? It is much cheaper then regular mineral oil.
Also can food grade be used, or this kind of stuff http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/mineral-.../6000077959843 ?
I can't seem to find normal mineral oil for a reasonable price.
Also, will my pc catch on fire if I don't get a radiator, or will it be fine.
 
Here is one option:
White Mineral Oil from STE Oil called "Crystal Plus 70T". It's odorless, clear, and very electrically resistant. You can order this oil directly from our vendor at http://store.steoil.com/mineral-oil-pc-kit/

I would avoid food grade just incase they add any type of additives for preservation.

Look at this link from our own forums on some good points and links:
