Description
Engine overheating?
RMI-25 will cool it by 7C…or more!
Even a thin layer of mineral scale through the radiator and engine water jackets is a major barrier to efficient cooling! RMI-25 added to the coolant quickly dissolves mineral scale and sediment from conventional type coolants.
Water provides more efficient cooling than the common gylcol type coolants, which are not necessary under typical Australian conditions. (Waterless coolants are generally pure glycol, and your engine will run hotter!!)
Toyota Landcruiser Fleet: With over 100 Landcruisers in this WA mining fleet, an average 25 water pumps failed a year due to the hard water used. The seal lips go first, then the bearings. The first year on RMI-25 Cooling system treatment saw 1 failure. The second year no water pumps failed. Expect longer pump and hose life with RMI-25.
Want radiator hoses that last twice as long? A coolant that lubricates water pump seals? Want an end to aluminium corrosion under hoses? Want to eliminate stray current that can corrode radiators in under 12 months? RMI-25 is THE real life FIX! The RMI-25 is a concentrated additive designed to Clean, Lubricate and Protect your radiator.
Why spend money on replacing expensive glycol when RMI-25 will clean and cool your entire cooling system while you drive. RMI-25 makes engines run cooler, prolonging engine life.
One Easy Application – Just pour some in your radiator and drive away.
- Non-Toxic System Cleaner
- Corrosion Protection
- Inhibits electrolysis
- Avoids Water Pump failures
- Doubles Hose Life
- Prevents cavitation & pitting
- Contains Fluorescent leak detector
- Cost effective glycol alternative
If you don’t need antifreeze, you could just use water and RMI-25. And if you love remote travel your cooling system provides an additional source of emergency drinking water. (Just make sure all traces of glycol have been thoroughly washed out first! Can’t guarantee that it tastes nice, but it’s not toxic!)
SAVINGS HISTORY: Has prevented water pump failures ($300 to $4000), and avoided engine loss caused by failed cooling systems in thousands of applications, saving rebuilds from $4000 to $200,000 plus.
RMI-25
Most products cannot prevent scale build up on cooling systems surfaces, which therefore require caustic or acid bathing.
RMI-25 breaks down solids to molecular size holding them in suspension, which discolours the cooling water to darkish brown. This colour change can occur within 6-10 hours of operation.
When this happens, simply drain system, back flush and re-dose until cooling water retains yellow-green colour. At this point, system is perfectly clean and will remain so if dosed accordingly.
RMI-25 Cooling System treatment can be added to all glycol based coolants or just used with water. Where anti-freeze is required, it should also be added. It is both a cleaner/de-scaler of the entire cooling system, as well as providing complete protection to all types of system materials.
RMI-25 cleans (and keeps clean) cooling system and at the same time prevents corrosion, cavitation erosion and cylinder pitting. It lubricates water pump seals, heater control valves, drain plugs and virtually eliminates water pump failures, while preserving hoses, O-rings and seals.
Unlike other cooling system treatments, RMI-25 is Non-Toxic and biodegradable, it is entirely safe to use in environmentally sensitive areas.
Directions for Use
Add RMI-25 directly into the radiator
250ml will treat 20L
1Ltr will treat 80L
Blocked or corroded systems will be cleaned within 15Hrs of regular driving
(excessive corrosion/blockages will float to the surface and can be removed or flushed from overflow tank)
RMI-25 replaces the need for regular coolants.

Always very informative and looking to the future to keep vehicles running like or close to new
Thomas Beaton –
MN Triton getting hot on hot days.
Used the RMI25 and instantly worked.
Average before use was around the 95 mark and big hills made it jump even higher. after use average is 88-92 so it 100% works will be buying once I need again and their other products too.
Gerard Lowe –
Excellent product
Ryan Gosling –
I’ve always been a bit sceptical of coolant additives but within 1000 k’s of using this product it’s proven itself to be true. descaling all the rubbish that was inside my motor out into the overflow bottle. I’m looking forward to using it not Only just in my four-wheel-drive, but also in my race engines and putting the product to my mates for them to use too.

Been using it for years
Isaac Murphy –
Haven’t tested it’s cleaning ability but definitely keeps temps down when mixed with demineralised water at the recommended dosage….. should help with coolant temps flogging down the soft sand when the swell is up

I am a return user of this product and use it in my ski boat. Amazing
Matthew –
Easy to use, very effective.
Robert Forrest –
Did the head gasket on my 2011 Ranger and used a well known brand of radiator cleaner before I started. Car is back together and put your RMI-25 in the newly flushed radiator. After 20 minutes of running the water was brown as s… Lots of floaty bits removed. Going to leave it for a few days running around and flush again. Going to use this on it’s own with water in the future. Amazing stuff!
Damien Westall –
10/10 definitely I’ll buy it again
Norman –
Simply the best product of its type in the world, in my opinion, simply nothing like it, quite unique, it simply works,
Brilliant product.
Adrian Grossman –
Has my td42t running at normal operating temp in very hot and humid conditions, especially when working it hard. Does the job and I keep coming back to cost effective maintenance products because they just work.
Brian Bowden –
Easy to add to my cooling system. Too early to confirm improvements. However I am confident it will perform as well as the other products I use from CEM.
Michael Schipp –
So far it has been doing as per video and recommended 👌

With around 6 hours of driving since I added RMI-25 to the HJ61 Landcruiser with 12HT engine and 7 year old cross flow PWR radiator, I can see a 10°C improvement in cooling in like for like conditions. I have a sensor on the top and bottom tanks and was previously seeing only a 10°C drop across the radiator when towing my van at 100kmh in mid 24°C ambient. Now this difference is 20°C and often more – all before the suggested 10 hours of running and with no flush yet. Looking forward to further testing in warmer ambient conditions.
Frank barone –
Feed back. I did treatment of cooling system rmi-25. On my India 4 wheel drive 2.2tubo diesel tata xenon.
I could not believe now much the temp reduce after run along the free I was surprised. Excellent product.
Richard –
the product works as it says it does am very happy
Kwang Poh –
excellent service from the well-informed support staff.
Nathan Trezise –
What a great product that does as described. i have a 1955 FJ Holden, we all know they used to run warm. so i added a dose of RMI 25 to the coolant that was in it and ran it around until it discoloured as described. a drain and a back flush and refill of water and only RMI25 an the ole chap now runs the coolest it ever has. 35 degree day, arh no worries, the old grey engine still keeps it cool. I no longer have to keep an eye on the temperature. its been months now and has barely discoloured since not bad for a cast engine. Super wrapped.
Highly recommended even in the old classics.
Anthony Lorimer –
great product and does exactly what it states
Jamies –
Good gear
Mike Garner –
Quick and effective
Thomas Slemenda –
So far so good. Just put it in so I’ll find out in a couple of weeks. But sounds like a good product.
David Wall –
Used this in 2005 TD42TI Gu Patrol.
The factory temp gauge would sit in the upper end of the range when driving at 110kph for long periods.
For reference i live in the NT.
I drained the cooling system and used RMI 25 with distilled water to fill it up.
I drove 650kms from Katherine to Boroloola today(05/12/2023) with outside temps pushing 40 odd degrees.
Coupled with the RMI 25 and the new larger intercooler scoop, i was able to maintain 115-120kph the whole way.
No longer having to drive to the temp gauge. The temp did creep up on a couple of hills when the cruise control was set to 120, however the needle only went up about one needles width, nothing like before where i would be required to back off.
Great product.
Highly recommend

Haven Cook – August 15 2023
Had a Hino P10 come in with oil coming out of the cooling system. Checked engine and decided it was the engine oil heat exchanger in the side of the engine. We couldn’t get a replacement oil heat exchanger so we dosed the cooling system with the recommended dosage of RMI-25 and took it for a 20 minute drive. Drained the cooling system. Then dosed the cooling system again and sent the truck back to the customer. We got the new heat exchanger in 2 weeks later, but the customer couldn’t get the truck back for 4 weeks. We checked the overflow bottle and it was almost full of oil. When we removed the radiator cap there was no oil on top of the coolant. We drained the coolant and removed the heat exchanger and found no traces of oil in the water gallery and also no rust deposits. I couldn’t believe it. Good stuff.

I had it in my PX Ranger now for approximately
120,000 tans the cooling system is performing as it should
BEVAN MAUGER –
Does as it says hoping to extend the life of water pump seal so I have no side of the road repairs whilst travelling
customer –
noticed the difference straight away
Dominic Pepe –
First time using. So far so good.
Terry Cogzell –
Done a great job of cleaning rust stain from my 2002 hilux cooling system after a week or two.

Matthew Ellis –
I have seen no effect after adding this product, but that maybe because it takes a while to circulate through the cooling system. Modern cars don’t have a radiator cap to make adding easy, so have to add it to the header bottle!
John Athanasiadis –
Had already reverse flushed the block, radiator and heater core with tap water using an adaptor. Put in the RMI-25 in the header tank and finished topping up then bled the air out. At this stage (2 weeks) I have not seen any ‘floaties’ in the header tank (yay) but I had previously been flushing every 3 – 6 months to unblock the heater core. It will be very telling if the heater core stays unblocked with the RMI-25 now in service, and I believe it will.
I also have deliberately only used tap water to really put the additive to the test. Other long term users have done the same (using tap water) with no ill effects and one person informed me that it has been in a cooling system for 5 years with tap water and all is peachey so far. So I will find out myself too I guess after some years!
Didn’t do enough testing before using it but I believe it was running at around 85 celsius previously and now it is 80 -81 (with 82 celsius thermostat) and on a recent foot down uphill push it got to all of 83.
So far I have spent the same as I normally would on normal green concentrate but I believe with better results.
Aaron Taplin –
Works amazingly well – successfully cleans out neglected cooling systems with immediate results shown on the temp gauge. Also works well in our supercharged race car – keeping both engine & charge cooler temps significantly lower than before.
arien scholten –
Used this product for years.
AJ Campers Pantry –
Our 30 year old 80 series Landcruiser like a lot of old diesels had some issues with the heat. We had a Redarc gauge installed to monitor these coolant ups and downs. As soon as we switched to the RMI-25 product we had a drop by 10ºC in engine temperature. Thats a massive decrease and peace of mind when remote touring in the hot Aussie outback.
Wayne Mackenzie –
I just completed a 3000klm trip to Longreach and the radiator ran a lot cooler with the RMI-25 – normally it sits halfway (9 o’clock) but after adding this it ran at 8:30 – a noticeable difference.
AS –
My temperature gauge is definitely not as high as it was since I added this product to my radiator.
John Gilroy –
Great product. I flushed the radiator and engine with it, and then added it to the water as this can be used in lieu of glycol/coolant.
