Purple Ice With Honda Coolant Okay ?

[JSRT4]

Just wondering if you guys think running Purple Ice is okay with current Honda coolant. I would regard the current coolant as green/blue in colour. My car is a Honda S2000 and it can run pretty hot, anything to assist with cooling may be good in my opinion.

In the past I ran Redline Watter Wetter with Honda coolant and I would get this brownish residue in the cooling system from the Water Wetter. Would Purple Ice do the same thing ?, is this a problem ?. I like the idea of reducing surface tension in the cooling system, but I don't want to run the stuff if it creates residue and sediment. Any opinions or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I would use Honda Type II Coolant and skip the additives.

Yeah, skip the Purple Ice and Water Wetter and the other junk.

thanks for the replies, so skip either one all together then hugh, sounds like good advice. I just put in fresh coolant, which I believe is the type 2, we'll leaave it at that. Thanks again.

thanks for the link, I see that these products seem to create scum on many different coolant mixes, good information in that post, suffice to say that these products are not in my future, thanks for saving me a few bucks and decent amount of time, not to mention headaches. Much appreciated.
