Guys I'm after some feedback from people who use Joe Gibbs CSP Coolant Protector.
 
I was advised to use this product by my engine builder after my small block was rebuilt, I also had the radiator pulled and cleaned out. I mix the JB CSP with demineralised water, not regular town water.
 
My car doesn't run hot so all is good there however I have noticed that there is a brown scum inside the radiator when I check the level [my car has factory a/c so no overflow tank] I assume this scum is probably throughout the engine coolant passages.
 
Has anyone else had this issue, is it something I should be concerned about and how do I rectify the problem.??

The product description says it for use when not using distilled water.  You are using distilled water, so why use this stuff?
I asked Tom DeWitt what kind of antifreeze I should use in his aluminum radiator, and he said it doesn't matter, but only use distilled water with it.  No tap, soft, or spring water, just distilled.
