VOCO Anti-Freeze
Some garages drain radiators of cars left with them overnight. We supply with each can of VOCO ANTI-FREEZE a printed card to hang on your radiator cap, which will tell garage hands that your car is protected with VOCO ANTI-FREEZE—and the radiator is not to be emptied.

PRICES OF VOCO ANTI-FREEZE
No. 1 Size - 8/6
No. 2 Size - 15/-

EXTREME TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS— The recommendations given in the Chart take care of all ordinary conditions met with in this country. If, however, extreme cold is experienced, we recommend one part of VOCO ANTI-FREEZE to three parts of water.
