Both a load of tosh. Just use a decent anti-freeze with an additive to stop corrosion and both jobs are good.

we use it in rally cars but you wouldnt notice the difference in the scooby ,

this is what it does

it has a unique agent that lowers temperatures by reducing or eliminating bubbles or vapor barrier that form on hot metal surfaces , stops the water from boiling
