Locally obtainable additives for color

[Froz]

I live in a decent sized city: autozone, checker autoparts, napa, etc. I'm looking for a good blue antifreeze to mix in the loop. Any ideas? I'm not so keen on going to the store and opening up each jug or asking some motor head ;)


Thnx,

Go down to your local VW dealer/service center. They should have blue antifreeze. It's made for mid 90s Jettas I think. Just ask for blue antifreeze. They should know what you're talking about.

If you dont need an additive, then you could just go to the grocery store and get blue food coloring.

Stay away from food colouring, in my experience it looses it's color after a few months, and stains your tubes an opaque brown after time. It's also apparantly bad for some pumps (something to do with particle size?).

I figure the less crap you stick in there the better so i'm not so keen on using food coloring + anti freeze. thanks for the vw tip. I'll give em a hollar.
