According to him it is a big help in putting out fires. I have used it over the years and works great for cooling BUT if you have a coolant leak or a
casting leak it will find the leak!
Yes I remember this !
WaterWetter is basically like a soap.
Changes behavior of water allowing it to break down oils making the water spread more to clean the surface.
They have a foam version of this at military and civilian airports.
