In what way? It leaves no residue if that's what you mean.
I am no chemist but let's see... the most commonly used Tygon tubing, with computer water cooling crowd that is, would be R-3603. The name "laboratory & vacuum" sort of hints to a chemically resilient material and that's exactly what the product specs strongly suggest. Here's a quick link to that:

Zerex on the other hand is simply a corrosion inhibitor, the most popular being "Racing Supercoolant" which is touted to have better cooling efficiency than your "regular" mix of antifreeze and water.

Long story short, yes, it does, but not in a negative way, so the answer is no!
The only visible effect would be color. A girly pink, which may go a long way with chicks. It's a well known fact that a typical Zerex using computer water cooling enthusiast is commonly perceived by women as " more sensitive".
