Do it Yourself Coolant Sharpening

For the last two decades we unravelled the mystery of coolant maintenance and created products that keep your coolant sharp.

Tell us your situation without sparing the gory details. We'll work with you to solve your problems, using your current equipment to the max. Have skimmers that don't work? We can fix them for you, or teach you how to fix them yourself. Have some machines that smell faster than others? We can provide a fix for under $100.

The basics aren't going to change: Choose the right fluid for your job, then prevent its premature chemical breakdown by: 1) starting with a clean sump, 2) mixing the fluids correctly, 3) keeping the sump clean, and 4) consistently monitoring your sump for any changes.

Most important, you're not in this alone.
