Royal Purple 01600 Purple Ice Super-Coolant Radiator Additive – 12 oz.
Description
Purple Ice is a high performance, synthetic, radiator
coolant additive. It reduces engine heat by reducing the surface tension of
the radiator fluids for improved heat transfer. Purple Ice fosters optimum
coolant flow by helping to prevent formation of scale deposits in the
radiator. It also lubricates the water pump seals. Purple Ice should always be
used in conjunction with antifreeze in regions where freezing temperatures
occur. Purple Ice is recommended for any water/glycol pressurized cooling
system, including those using the traditional green silicate based glycols or
the newer OAT or HOAT based glycols. Royal Purple’s Purple Ice is a
high performance radiator conditioner. Its advanced 2-in-1 corrosion inhibitor
and wetting agent provides year-round defense against corrosion. Purple Ice
also reduces the surface tension of the radiator coolant to help reduce engine
temperatures.Reduces Coolant TemperaturesExtensive testing confirms Purple Ice
reduces coolant temperatures better than comparable products while providing
extra corrosion protection. Performance AdvantagesUp to 22°F Reduction of
Coolant Temperature–Reduces surface tension of a coolant allowing more heat
to transfer outside the radiator resulting in more horsepowerMaximum
Protection–Reduces hot spots in the engine and cylinder heads, reducing the
possibility of engine failureCleans and Extends Equipment Life–Helps prevent
overheating, keeps the system clean and extends the life of the water
pumpSuperior Corrosion Protection–Enhanced aluminum protection that combats
corrosion, electrolysis and erosionCompatible–Provides complete protection in
straight water or coolant/anti-freeze mixes and safe for track useDirections:
Shake Well Before Using Make sure cooling system works properly and is free of
blockage and corrosion. Bottled, filtered drinking water is recommended.
Distilled water not recommended, unless mixed with 50% antifreeze.Use one (1)
oz per quart of coolant with 50/50 mix or two (2) oz per quart of coolant with
straight water. Replace annually or every 30,000 miles, whichever comes
first.IMPORTANT NOTES: Purple Ice does NOT provide freeze protection. Follow
manufacturer recommendations when antifreeze is required. Royal Purple
recommends that you drain and flush your system if you’ve used another brand
of coolant additive. Purple Ice will NOT correct any pre-existing mechanical
deficiencies of a cooling system.Distilled water should not be used in
straight water-cooling systems with aluminum radiators. Filtered drinking
water or tap water is recommended for such cooling systems.Purple Ice–FAQsIs
Purple Ice compatible with other cooling system additives?Purple Ice should
not be used with other heat-transfer or cooling enhancing products or “water
wetters”. If such a product has been used in the cooling system, the system
should be drained and flushed before using Purple Ice.Purple Ice is compatible
with cooling system additives intended to stop or slow leaks. Please note that
such stop-leak products often typically put a coating on the interior surfaces
of the cooling system, so the effects of Purple Ice may be diminished.Is
Purple Ice compatible with anti-freeze in my car?Purple Ice is compatible with
all current OEM/factory and major brand automotive anti-freeze. This includes
traditional green ethylene glycols, as well as OAT/HOAT antifreezes (e.g.
DexCool; Ford and Chrysler orange, gold, pink; European and Japanese OEM red,
pink, etc.).What water/anti-freeze concentration is recommended when using
Purple Ice?Purple Ice may be added to any anti-freeze/water mix; however,
testing has shown higher water concentrations yield greater cooling benefits.
While Purple Ice does contain corrosion inhibitors as well as lubricants to
compensate for a lower anti-freeze/water concentration, Royal Purple
recommends a minimum of 20 percent antifreeze concentration be used in street
driven vehicles because Purple Ice has no effect on the boiling and/or
freezing point of water.How much Purple Ice do I need to add to my cooling
system?When using Purple Ice with an antifreeze/water mix, Royal Purple
recommends adding 1 ounce of Purple Ice per quart of cooling system capacity.
For straight water (racing) applications, Royal Purple recommends adding 2
ounces of Purple Ice per quart of cooling system capacity.How often should I
add Purple Ice to my radiator?When used with antifreeze, Purple Ice should be
added once a year or every 30,000 miles, whichever comes first, in order to
maintain proper performance. When using Purple Ice in a cooling system running
straight water, Purple Ice should be added once a year or every 15,000 miles,
whichever comes first.Will adding too much Purple Ice harm my cooling
system?No. A higher concentration of Purple Ice than recommended won’t offer
any additional cooling benefit nor will it have any adverse effects on the
engine or cooling system.Can Purple Ice be used in diesel engines?Yes. Purple
Ice may be used in diesel engines for improved heat transfer as well as
reduced cavitation.
