It will probably last all of a week. It is a temporary fix to a serious problem.

It would probably scare me more if it actually worked, what would it coat the rest of the coolant system with?

Cool

Won't work, we have aluminum heads

Thats a load of BS. You can't seal any kind of high pressure leak like that. A small radiator pin hole is hard enough to seal, let alone a head gasket with 10:1 compression

Remember Liquid Bars Leak. You poured it in the radiator and it had pellats at the bottom of the bottle. It said it could fix a leaky head gasket. So I tried it om a 79 T/A I owned back in the day. I had a leaky head gasket and I put the Bars leak in and it fixed it for 3 months and then it started to leak again. I put it in again and it fixed it long enough to sell the car. I have seen others as well Like Moroso's Ceramic seal. I had a buddy with a built 327 runnin 14 to 1 compression but he got cheap on the gaskets and when he ran it, he blew a head gasket. He put the Mororso stuff in and it fixed it. But Like others say. Aluminum heads are a different breed. If I had a leaky or Blown head gasket now, I would just tear it apart and fix it the right way. Your better off.
