Gee, maybe this water wetter could be used instead of a swimming pool during
summer!
Tomas, surprised that the ambient temp was affected in that direction... ;-)

But if you have, say, a 180 degree thermostat and your car idles at 200,
then you WOULD see a benefit.
Several months ago I wrote a long post about my positive experience with
Water Wetter. I did a before-and-after comparison, and it knocked about 15
degrees off my ambient temperature at idle.
