Coolant & Redline water wetter different???Originally posted by silentkiller@Sep 21 2004, 01:27
Distilled water + coolant, tambah water wetter lagi sedap!
i use redline, what brand did u bought?Originally posted by TiBuN@Sep 22 2004, 19:30
My water wetter comes in quite a large bottle, i think 250ml, not very sure. And according to the instruction, I should pour the whole bottle into it, is there any problem?
That means I need to get coolant before pouring? Luckily I still haven't use the water wetter yet....
On a sidenote, please recommend a coolant? NASA? Hehehe

u must understand wat causes rust aka oxidation. OXYGEN itself! therefore, water in any form will cause oxidation/rusting. besides, there's no truth in saying distilled water has better cooling efficiency or prevent rusting coz distilled water(pure H20) has boiling point of 100 celsius where else 'tampered' water with all those minerals and other particles have a slightly higher boiling point. just a simple experiment. if u boil distilled water and test the temp, u will find its close to 100 celsius where else u try boil water with some salt in it, u will find the temp boil at 120 celsius more or less. now we talk about coolant. its essentially the liquid that jacks up the boiling point of water and therefore ur car stays cool. plus it prevents rust from forming but u must bear in mind it minimises, not eliminates. u will find that even with coolant, your radiator and other internal parts will still suffer from rust, moreover if the coolant content is already low inside. a point to note though, coolant does not remove rust, it just minimises the rust and prevents it from rusting further.Originally posted by GRexer@Sep 21 2004, 17:09
distilled water doesn't have any minerals, pure 99.9% water, hence, rust won't be that easy to develop.
Mine is also Redline. thinking alot of stuff because scared of wasting the water wetter, ain't cheap that's what I should say.Originally posted by TiBuN+Sep 23 2004, 18:43 --></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>QUOTE (TiBuN @ Sep 23 2004, 18:43 )</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'>Originally posted by silentkiller@Sep 23 2004, 00:44
