Bardahl’s radiator additives explained
Bardahl is a global leader in automotive additives and lubricants due to the brand’s unrelenting dedication to quality, innovation and product testing. Since its founding in 1939, Bardahl has been motivated by a desire to provide goods that improve the longevity and performance of vehicles and their various components, including the radiator system.
World-class research and development (R&D) is the foundation of the company’s historic success, where innovative formulations are put through rigorous testing to ensure they satisfy the highest standards. Bardahl’s reputation as a reliable brand among auto enthusiasts and experts worldwide has been cemented by this commitment to quality.
Reliable maintenance solutions are essential in Zimbabwe, where vehicles are subjected to extreme road conditions and high temperatures daily. This is why vehicle radiators must be maintained and kept in working order. How often have you seen cars pulled over with steam pouring out of their hood? Bardahl radiator additives help to prevent these issues.

Bardahl’s two radiator additives
Cutting Edge supplies two Bardahl radiator additives in Zimbabwe. These are Radiator Stop Leak and Radiator Oil Remover, and both are intended to solve typical cooling system problems. For small leaks and cracks in the radiator, hoses, and gaskets, the Radiator Stop Leak is an incredibly efficient fix. By creating a strong seal at the leak’s location, this product stops coolant loss and keeps the cooling system pressure at the right level.
Small leaks can be quickly and easily fixed, preventing expensive repairs and possible engine damage. The Radiator Stop Leak is safe to use in any car and works with any kind of coolant. It also helps to prevent rust and corrosion within the cooling system.
To use it, simply turn your heating onto maximum, start the engine and let it idle until the radiator fan turns on. Pour the contents of the bottle into your radiator filler cap and add new coolant if necessary. Run the engine for 10 minutes, giving the product time to create a solid seal on any leaks.

The other product is Radiator Oil Remover. Oil contamination in the cooling system is a different but no less troublesome problem that this Bardahl product is intended to address. A burst head gasket or other engine faults may allow oil to seep into the radiator, reducing cooling effectiveness and perhaps damaging hoses and seals. By efficiently emulsifying and eliminating oil buildup from the cooling system, Bardahl’s Radiator Oil Remover helps the system operate normally again.
It also cleans from the inside and removes deposits within the radiator, which improves the flow of coolant and prevents deterioration. To use Radiator Oil Remover, pour 300ml into the radiator filler cap while the engine is cold. Turn your heating to the maximum and start the engine. Let it idle until the fan turns on. Run the engine for 10 minutes and then switch it off. Let your engine cool down again before draining and rinsing the radiator with distilled water. Fill the radiator with new coolant.

The importance of maintenance in Zimbabwe
These two Bardahl products are simple to use and offer long-lasting protection to your car’s cooling system. In a country with mild to hot temperatures for most of the year, looking after your radiator will ensure your car runs smoothly and that you have no breakdowns when travelling between towns.
Rough roads also cause substantial vehicle wear and tear in Zimbabwe. Additives are essential for improving the longevity and performance of engine parts, preventing damage, and guaranteeing peak performance. Engine additives can prolong engine life and improve performance by reducing friction and improving lubrication.
Vehicle owners in Zimbabwe must ensure their vehicles are well looked after by using world-renowned additives, such as those created by Bardahl. Our range of lubricants and additives is intended to improve the longevity and performance of vehicles in Zimbabwe, from motorbikes and cars to pick-ups and lorries.
