Strangely, Redline’s own test results don’t square with their ad copy. Their technical literature only shows an eight degree Fahrenheit drop in a car with a 50/50 mix of water and coolant, and an eighteen degree Fahrenheit drop for a car running 100 percent water. Most of the car breakdown happens because of the problems in the cooling system of the vehicles. With the correct use of coolant additives, you can protect your car and prevent breakdown. After adding a water wetter to their coolant due to annual service, some customers said that after running their car engine for long, the expansion tank’s bottom emits a brown deposit that the company Redline said is only normal. Redline is a water wetter compatible with all antifreeze, including the most improved and new long-life variations. Both of them can be used individually or all together. Purple Ice is a chemical product that is added to the coolant to prevent the engine from freezing up.

These radiator additives are also known as antifreeze. You can reduce the temperature of the engine or deal properly with an engine, whenever the temperature of an engine drops down. Purple Ice vs Lucas Super Coolant Rust and corrosion protection allows for use of straight water in racing or reduced antifreeze levels in warm climates. Redline is an American company that has been making all manner of automotive fluids since 1979, so it’s safe to say it knows what it’s doing. With a catalogue that includes oils, flushes, additives and more, with a great many geared at performance use, it’s safe to assume they’re at the top of their game. But even so, a 355ml bottle of liquid that cools your engine? Too good to be true, surely? Redline claims that its Water Wetter “lowers temperatures by reducing or eliminating bubbles or vapor barrier that form on hot metal surfaces”. It also has anti-corrosion agents within it, too. You simply add it to your expansion tanks, and away you go. That’s all there is to it. But does it work?From what I recall, the temperature drop is reduced by increasing concentration of anitfreeze. It's intended puropose is for cars running water only... if I remember correctly. I ran it with no ill effect in my 96 GS, but because I ran antifreeze in a 50/50 mix, the temp drop was predicted to be faily small. All this information is on bottle. While purple ice is a well-known radiator additive or antifreeze, Locas Super Coolant is a known coolant for the engine. https://cdn.opieoils.co.uk/images/variants/large/redline/red-line-waterwetter-super-coolant-additive-355ml-bottle-5.jpg

Coolant additive is used to keep engines free from overheating. Every engine has a point in which it creates the highest power and proficiency. When engines create excess heat, it reduces the proficiency of the engine. It influences the metal parts to expand in size that causes them to clash with each other. Deep galvanization in molten Zinc creates a barrier against the rust and helps the metal part from corrosion. All that said, I'm not that familiar with the properties of DexCool. It's possible that it already reduces the surface tension of the mixture, thus minimizing the impact that Water Wetter might have. I'll see what I can find out on that. https://cdn.opieoils.co.uk/images/variants/icon/redline/red-line-waterwetter-super-coolant-additive-355ml-bottle-4.jpg In a forum about the effectiveness of water wetter, customers talked about how the water wetter effectively lowered the temperature by approximately 10 degrees Fahrenheit after pouring the water wetter into the engine. According to them, the car’s temperature went down even faster after a quarter-mile run on the road.Water Wetter is a surfacant and can actually work as described in the manufacturers literature, but it works better in large bore systems. The kind of diameters we are using (motorcycles wise anyway) it doesn't reach anything like the claimed figures. You might find it more efficient in larger bore car systems, I really couldn't say. I can understand slightly HIGHER coolant temperatures as a result of improved heat transfer, with correspondingly lower metal temperatures.
