    Got any more info on it? Sounds like a lot of water and some glycol by just looking at the price point.

    ang alam ko pareho nung binibenta sa blade na coolant, yung blade na ang brand.pero same bottle. and plagiarized yung maka naka sulat sa likod ng bottle, word for word pareho nang sa prestone coolant, except pinalitan lang nila ng MicroMagic yung word na prestone. manufactured by DUB GLOBAL, nagoya japan. yan ang nasa label nya sa likod.

    Use OEM, even if it costs slightly more. Minsan ka lang naman magpalit ng coolant.

    A coolant's job is not as simple as it may seem. Much like what the engine oil does, the coolant also have the job of inhibiting chemical reactions and at the same time, lubricate the water pump and protect the rubber seals. Using the wrong coolant may have both short and long term effects.

    Could be a private label like Blade.

    Thing is, 500ml of water is a few centavos. 250ml of Glycol costs more than 90 bucks in retail. Spider sense tingling.

    This is true. People don't skimp on your engine's cooling system. Its a relatively cheap investment in reliability.

    I use only OEM coolant. I don't want to gamble on other brands like Micro Magic. Baka iba ung ratio ng chemicals or formulation sa loob.

    Check your vehicle requirements. For units that call for ethylene glycol base coolants, we use zic super A pre mixed coolant. 880 per four liters

    For Toyotas that use long life coolant, thats the only fluid we use. Or in an emergency, distilled drinking water.
