80% distilled water
1/32 ratio of water wetter (4oz per gallon of distilled water)
I figure I’d try to make the most of the stock cooling system by making it more efficient. This DIY cost me $15 so I’m happy with the results.

What does that 20% coolant come out it down to freezing temps? like down 20F on one of those little testers.

When using 20%, your freezing point is around 15 degrees f.
