USE DIRECTIONS
One 12 ounce bottle treats 12-16 quarts of water or a
50% ethylene or propylene glycol solution. In smaller
cooling systems, use 4-5 caps per quart. Add directly
through the cooling system fill cap into the radiator or
into the overflow tank. Do not open a cooling system
while hot. For best protection for aluminum, replenish
or replace every 15,000 miles. The anti-scaling ingredients
in Red Line WaterWetter® allow its use with
ordinary tap water. However, using with distilled or
deionized water will accomplish some scale removal
in the cylinder head area. Plain water with or without
WaterWetter® should not be used in cooling systems
containing magnesium - antifreeze should be used -
with WaterWetter®. For maximum temperature
reductions use the most water and the least
antifreeze possible to prevent freezing in your climate.
Even in summertime the use of air-conditioning
can blow freezing air through the heater and cause
freezing of the heater core unless approximately 20%
antifreeze is used. Red Line WaterWetter® is available
in 12 ounce containers.

I read those threads and seen it isn't true.

6.3 qts. You'll have to use a turkey baster to remove a bit of coolant to make room for the water wetter.

I've had it in my car for six months now. No problems.

I've used Watter Wetter in my SR20 in the past. And yes, it will turn change your coolant a diferent color. That's normal.

I think the oily goop formation is more likely if you add it to the overflow versus directly adding it to the radiator. That was my experience in my previous car.
