Ah yes, antifreeze. Thought I might mention this from personal experience. Antifreeze for your vehicle should be mixed 50/50. Any stronger and it will rot out your radiator with expensive results. Being from the Great White North with some very low temps I used to mix it much stronger but that was a mistake. A 50/50 mixture will gell up at extreme temps that is another kettle of fish kind of thing. I would often just leave a vehicle running all night if I suspected the worst case scenario.
As for the other kind of antifreeze I have experience with that too. It will gel up your brain if you let it. I barely dodged that particular bullet years ago.
