FAQs

What is the shelf life of ExoPro Standard Blue Antifreeze?

The product itself has a long shelf life when stored properly in a sealed container, away from extreme temperatures. However, for optimal performance, it is recommended to replace the coolant every two years once it is in your vehicle's cooling system.

Can I mix ExoPro Standard Blue Antifreeze with other coolants?

While ExoPro Standard Blue Antifreeze is compatible with most coolants, it is recommended to use it on its own for the best performance and to avoid potential compatibility issues. Always flush the system before switching coolant types.

What type of water should I use to dilute the antifreeze?

Use distilled or deionized water to dilute the antifreeze. This prevents mineral buildup and corrosion within the cooling system.

How do I dispose of used coolant?

Used coolant is considered hazardous waste. Dispose of it properly by taking it to a local recycling center or hazardous waste disposal facility. Never pour coolant down the drain or into the environment.

How does the bittering agent work?

The bittering agent in ExoPro Standard Blue Antifreeze is designed to make the coolant taste unpalatable, discouraging accidental ingestion by humans and animals.

Does this product meet industry standards?

Yes, ExoPro Standard Blue Antifreeze meets or exceeds industry standards including BS 6580: 2010, ASTM D 3306, ASTM D 4985, and SAE J 1034.

What is the recommended mix ratio for winter conditions?

A 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water provides protection down to -20°C. For colder temperatures, you can increase the proportion of antifreeze, but do not exceed a 70% antifreeze to 30% water ratio.

Troubleshooting

Engine overheating.

Check coolant level, inspect for leaks, and ensure the radiator cap is functioning correctly. If the issue persists, consult a mechanic.

Coolant leaks.

Inspect hoses, radiator, and water pump for leaks. Tighten connections or replace damaged components.

Premature coolant degradation.

Ensure correct coolant mixture, avoid mixing with incompatible coolants, and check for signs of internal engine damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  3. Procedure:
  • Allow the engine to cool completely before opening the cooling system.
  • Drain the old coolant from the radiator.
  • Flush the system with distilled water if desired.
  • Add the appropriate amount of ExoPro Standard Blue Antifreeze.
  • Top up with distilled water if needed to achieve the desired concentration.
  • Ensure the system is properly bled to remove air pockets.
  1. Care: Regularly check the coolant level and condition. Replace the coolant every two years as recommended.
