I've used my bare bones water + glycerol (no photo flo) at a 50-50 
mix and it's OK.  However, for more you'll need a compatible 
surfactant.

MIS sells what it calls "UC Base" that is presumeably compatible with 
UC inks.  I have never tested it with UC inks.  It's used for their 
cleaning solution also and appears to be compatible with everything.  
I found it bronzed terribly with MIS glossy inks and was a very bad 
base for Eboni also.  But it might be just right for the UC inks.  
It'd be the one I'd start experimenting with first if I wanted to 
dilute a UC glossy ink.

They have tried to sell the UC base for that, and it bronzes too much 
to be useful.  The MIS glop is the best base for the MIS UT inks.
