I usually stick with the megasteam but I understand that that's not available in all countries. If I can't get mega steam, I just use straight Johnson's baby oil. Works great.

Another way to make your own is to use liquid glycerin and distilled water. I tried that, using 70% distilled water and 30% glycerin and it worked pretty good, but then I found Mega Steam and it's just so easy to buy it in the bottle that I haven't messed around with anything else ever since.

I've used similar smoke fluid in a Heng Long smoke machine in my Challenger 2 and it works ok so far.
I had a quantity of it for model boat smoke units which are basically just a wick wrapped around a resistor with a fan to keep the smoke moving so very similar to the ones in the tanks.
I think I get more quantity of smoke, too, compared to the Heng Long oil.
