This stuff is miracle

I’m currently stuck in a lemon lease due to desperate needs. I think that my 2008 Hyundai Sonata radiator has been leaking for a long time, and I didn’t notice until it became worse. I followed the directions. It took almost 2 days to fully seal but it definitely worked.

Solved the leaks

I’ve used both the radiator stop leak as well as the head gasket sealant and was completely satisfied with both products as they solved the leaks and made my ride enjoyable again.

Amazing product

Product: Radiator Stop Leak Concentrate Sealer 

Soon after I bought my used 2005 Ford Mustang, a puddle of antifreeze coolant always appeared under the car every morning.  Upon inspection, I noticed that coolant was leaking on the short side of the radiator.  I tried all kinds of sealers from auto stores.  None worked.  During my weekly trip to the supermarket, I bought Bar's Leaks Radiator Stop Leak Concentrate Sealer. After two doses, the leaks were sealed!  It lasted about a year before another dose was needed.  It's been months since I've seen a leak.  Thankfully!  Amazing product!  I even bought an emergency bottle.

Nothing but 5 stars

Hi my name is Eddie, I used the stop leak for radiators on my mom's 2005 Acura MDX years back and it held great for 3 years until she traded it in. Probably still going strong, people say it clogs stuff and everything, but they are stupid because if that was the case, we would have had plenty of issues with the cooling system as it was in it for 3 years. I will use it for any other issues like that my family has even though I hope I don’t have to LOL. Nothing but 5 stars for this product.

Never lets me down for cooling system leaks

I call it magic mechanic in a can. I’m 78 years old and I can’t remember the first time I tried Bar's Leaks to stop an annoying radiator weep. The results made me a believer for not only emergency situations but for maintenance. I like and tinker with old British iron, specifically Jag, Triumph and MG. All these makes are long-established leakers. I always had a sticker proclaiming Bars Leak on my entire past race, solo, and rally cars. Bar’s Leaks is a great product line that has never let me down.

Always does the job

I've used the Maximum Strength Radiator Stop Leak (1196). For as long as I can remember and it has never failed to stop whatever leaks I had.

Best brand out there

I used Bar's Leaks Radiator Stop Leak (part 1196). It just works!

 by Rolf D.
Did its job

The Bar's Leaks product I’ve used in the past was the Radiator Stop Leak, and it worked fine back then. Over time, the radiator ended up going because the tanks started to leak and corrode, so I had to purchase a new one by then. But for the leaks before that, Bar's Leaks worked great.

Glad we could help, Rolf! Thanks for choosing Bar's Leaks.
