Errecom Purple Cool: Glycerin-Based Antifreeze and Coolant Concentrate, G13, 1 Litre
On the hunt for a trusty antifreeze and coolant to keep your car’s radiator ticking over nicely? Errecom Purple Cool is a concentrated formula crafted to shield your vehicle’s cooling system from all sorts of nastiness. Packed with glycerin, it gives your radiator’s rubber and plastic bits that extra bit of TLC, helping to fend off the usual wear and tear.
What’s the clever bit?
This coolant ticks the G13 box, but it’s always worth giving your car’s handbook a quick once-over to make sure it’s the right fit — you might also come across G11, G12, or G12+ specs depending on your motor. When mixed properly, it offers cracking freeze protection down to -30°C if diluted one-to-one with water, which is just the ticket for those chilly British winters. Plus, it pushes the boiling point well over 100°C, so your engine stays cool as a cucumber even on warmer days or during longer journeys.
Why go for glycerin-based coolant?
Glycerin’s a bit of a star when it comes to preventing corrosion and scale build-up inside your radiator. That means fewer blockages and leaks down the line. It’s especially handy if your car’s got aluminium parts or if you’re keen to dodge the faff of frequent maintenance. On top of that, it helps stretch the life of rubber seals and plastic components in the cooling system — so you’re not just looking after your engine, but also saving yourself a pretty penny on future repairs.
How do you use it?
It comes as a concentrate, so you’ll need to mix it with water before topping up your radiator. The ratio you choose affects how well it freezes and boils, so tweak it depending on the season and your local weather. The 1-litre bottle is just right — easy to handle, pour, and stash away without any mess.
As with anything you chuck in your car, it’s best to double-check it’s compatible with your vehicle’s specs. But if you’re after a no-nonsense, reliable antifreeze that scores high on protection, performance, and longevity, Errecom Purple Cool is well worth a punt. No faffing about — just straightforward, effective cooling for your motor.
