Ys the dye is available from DuraCool. So I ordered it as part of a kit (on sale for under $50 -usually $90). The kit includes a dye that is visible without the special glasses. Also incl is the hose, gauge, leak sealer, and mineral oil (called "Chill"). The DuraCool cans are 6oz. @ $6.25 and I believe Ken said it will take <4 cans. It was the shipping that killed me @ $50+-. 2nd day air. UPS.
