buy some distilled water, it cheap.

I had planed on using distiled water, but it may still be an issue because of the air quality/average temperature around my local.

Noted, though, I don't believe I would be using enough to cause it to foam up.

Something I just remembered.....my city sucks.
In the city I live in it is unlawful to dispose of or accept used anti-freeze except at city authorised locals.
There is only one city authorised local. The recycleing center, but they only accpet anti-freeze on the first and third Tuesdays of odd numbered months.
Which is a PITA and ridiculous for a city of 150k people, it makes me so
.
So whatever I get needs to be something anti-corrosive, something anti-growth, and something I can pour down the drain or easily dispose.
