Alphacool Tec-Protect additive

SpudMaster · 19 Sep 2006 at 12:28

Anyone has any experience with the Alphacool Tec-Protect ready for use water additive? Im thinking of giving it a try when i change my water next.
My only concern is it says for systems with copper and aluminium compoments.
Will it be ok with my nickel coated brass barbs or am i best not risking it??
Thanks

lookin at alphacool kits, they come with this additive and seem to have nickel coated brass connectors so looks like i'll be ok.
Can anyone confirm?

One should be enough, I have a coolplex 25 res and a 120x3 rad and I use less than 1 ltr (about 2/3).

Topping it up with distilled water shouldn't hurt it if needed.
