drain coolant, flush system with water. flush again to make sure there is
not antifreeze in the system.  add the ceramic stuff with some water. fill
up system with water, drive for about 20 minutes to get the stuff hot. let
sit for 24 hours.  drain the mixture. add your normal coolant stuff and you
are on your way.
sounds like a lot of work, but better than nothing if you are on the road
and stuck!
