![]() ![]() Designed for modern aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze systems. Or it can be added to new or used antifreeze to improve the heat transfer of ethylene and propylene glycol systems. This liquid product can be used to provide rust and corrosion protection in plain water for racing engines, which provides much better heat transfer properties than glycol-based antifreeze. WaterWetter is a unique wetting agent for cooling systems which reduces coolant temperatures by as much as 30☏. In racing applications, the use of water and WaterWetter will enable the use of smaller radiator systems, which means less frontal drag, and it will also reduce cylinder head temperatures, even when compared to water alone, which means more spark advance may be used to improve engine torque. Maintenance is quite simple and only required once each year, but most vehicle owners never routinely change the coolant or replenish the corrosion inhibitors which are required for trouble-free operation. The most poorly maintained system in an automobile is usually the cooling system. There's way more to this, and I'm not a chemist, but the above is the reader's digest version, and hopefully helps.Red Line WaterWetter is designed to provide improved metal wetting and excellent corrosion inhibition when added to plain water or a glycol coolant. Guess what they packaged in that? You already know the answer. No more wiping your car off after using their product. ![]() If you watch the Daytona race(s), you'll most likely see a marketing blitz for a product called Auto Dry Car Wash. In cars engines, the reduced surface tension theory is that the coolant will find every little nook and cranny inside the cylinder head castings, asborb more heat, thus no hot spots. Water beads may contain small particles of debris, thus ruining a class A paint job. Once again the reduced surface tension, means no water beads. Surfactants are added to sheet water off whatever widget you are rinsing (cleaning) prior to paint. Last night, I disassembled the enigne and was impressed that the water coming out of the engine. I used compressed air to blow the water out of the radiator and engine before letting the car sit for four months. I broke a timing chain in my car and parked it. Same deal commercial paint pretreatment systems. I used cheap water wetter from O'Reilly's and like it. Personally in my chilled water set-up I have a 75:25 mix of RO Water and Dexcool, with a little bit of redline water wetter.įor dishes, surfactants are used to sheet rinse water off, so no water beads, thus no hard water spots on your fine china. Change cooling system annually for best protection.Īnd with that, I think the matter is settled.ĭiscussion of ratios of your surface tension reducer aside, the generic term for water wetter or jet dry is.surfactantīoth of the above contain some form of a surfactant, and as you all know by this discussion reduces surface tension of water. Red Line's WATTER WETTER provides excellent corrosion protection for modern cast iron, aluminum and brass systems. Less than 50% antifreeze provides further improvement in temperature reduction, but at least 15% antifreeze should be used in street vehicles. I cannot at this time say that this product works though, as I have not added it to my loop yet but I am sure it will do the trickĭirections for use: 1 ounce (3-4 capsful) per quart or 1 bottle per automotive cooling system of 12-20 quarts. It says that it passes some ASTM D-2570 simulated service corrosion tests. Hy-Per Lube contains Molybdate which forms a protective film on aluminum parts. ![]() It also says that it provides protection from rust corrosion and electolysis in cooling systems using 50/50 water and anti-freeze and in water only systems. ![]() This allows cooling systems, using a 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water to run 6-8 f cooler, racing applications running straight water up to 20 f cooler. Lowers the surface tension of the coolant allowing it to more deeply penetrate the metal surfaces at vital heat ransfer areas in the cooling system. I was actually looking for a corrosion inhibitor and this is what they showed me I found some stuff at the local checker auto parts store yesterday that is pretty much the same thing as watter wetter. ![]()
