[s-cars] RE: Mandrel Bend Confusion (LAC)

[Keith Maddock]

My best edumicated guess is that increasing the alcohol content of the high pressure "water" stream will improve the efficiency of the bend, however increasing the alcohol content of the operator may decrease the efficiency of the bend.
 (latter theory not applicable for anywhere in  WV or in German Car Factories, and is excessively cost prohibitive in Arctic Sweden).

Cheers,

Does this liquid require a high alcohol content?
