I use it - Redline Water Wetter.

The idea behind it is sound, but whether it really works as it is
supposed to in an automotive cooling systems is questionable.

It is a type of detergent, or wetting agent. In this case the idea is
that it aids molecules of coolant to make better contact with the
surfaces against which it comes in contact wilt, and there fore aids in
transfer of heat energy first from the hot parts of the vehicle to the
coolant, then after transport, from the coolant to the cooling system
components.

I really don't see a measurable difference but I like the concept, it
doesn't hurt, and may well help. So, I use it. Operators choice, really.
