In the past most people thought that the Bar's stop leak in the silver
and black bottle was the best.
Recently two different NAPA auto parts store managers told me that K&W
Nanotechnology was better. It comes in a bright green plastic bottle.
They say it has very fine particles and is better at sealing larger
leaks like heater core seams. Some sort of liquid glass that seals
permanently. But you have to completely flush out all antifreeze for it
to adhere. And it needs to dry for a day.
Anyone have any experience with Nanotechnology cooling system sealer?

Nope. Just plain old ground black pepper from the grocery
store.

i have a car in the shop i work in and it's a cast iron 350 chevy motor and
the heads are cracked form being overheated by the customer adding stop leak
to the cooling system
it blocked the 1/8 in the head gaskets not allowing proper flow of coolant
fix it correctly
there is no such thing as service in a can unless your name is craig

I have read about some people would put a raw egg in a leaky radiator to
stop leaks, with the engine running and the radiator fluid heated
up.Some used car lot shysters, many years ago, would put sawdust in
leaky radiators.
