Irontite Ceramic Motor Sealer Instructions for use

For best results make sure there is no anti-freeze in the cooling system before completing this process.

Instructions numbered 1 to 3 below are only completed to flush your cooling system to remove any anti-freeze.

If you are sure your cooling system has no anti-freeze you can start with instruction number 4.

 

  1. Drain the cooling system and flush it through with clean water.
  2. Re-fill with fresh water and bleed the system.
  3. Leave the cooling system to cool.
  4. When cool drain off approx. two pints of water.
  5. Mix all the ceramic sealer with one pint of warm water and add to the cooling system.
  6. Take the vehicle on a long run. 50/70 miles would be good distance this will allow the ceramic sealer to coat the entire engine.
  7. While the engine block is warm, drain the water system completely.
  8. Remove the top and bottom hose and the radiator filler cap. This is to allow air to circulate through the complete engine & cooling system. Leave the vehicle overnight to dry out.
  9. Next day, re-fill and bleed the cooling system.
  10. Once you have completed the entire process you can then add anti-freeze back into the cooling system.

Notes.

Why a 50/70 mile trip: This allows the ceramic sealer to coat the entire engine.

Why drain the cooling system while the engine block is warm: Once the system is drained any remaining water will evaporate away if the block is warm allowing for a better seal.

Why leave the vehicle overnight to dry: It does not need to be overnight however, it should be at least 12 hours.

Bleeding the cooling system.

Top up the expansion tank to the correct level, with the expansion cap off start the engine, run the engine until the thermostat opens. Both the top and the bottom radiator hoses will become warm/hot once the thermostat is open. Top up the expansion tank as necessary. Rev the engine at 2000 RPM until the air bubbles stop rising in the expansion tank. Approx. 90 to 120 seconds. Top up as necessary and refit cap.

 

Beware when draining hot water.
