Ken,
Thanks.  I have found only one other reference to this kind of thing.  It was with Honerite gold and the individual has the same issue I do, some kind of white precipitate with tap water. 

As a test, I used some regular bottled water from my local supermarket, no white precipitate.  I am kind of surprised that no one has seen this or that Tormek does not have some information about this on their website.  I can't possibly be the only one who has seen this with the ACC-150.

Anyways, bottled water from here forward.

So I got my diamond stone, new stainless drive shaft.  I mixed up my first batch of water + anti corrosion liquid and got some seriously cloudy water. 

I have extremely had water where I live.  So I have a couple questions that I could not find an answer to.

Should I be filtering the complete ACC treated water to remove this cloudy substance that is almost certainly calcium precipitate?

Would a filtered/bottled water or distilled water be a better choice considering my hard water?

I posted this to a wood turning group on face book so forgive the link.  I was not wanting to do a bunch of double work putting the photo in multiple locations just to post.
