Put 1/2 bottle (1/2 ounce) in expansion tank and run it for a day or two ..
Then at night put on glasses and use flashlight to find UV source.
I just found my leak at the heater control valve...

+1 on this. Used UV dye to find a leak that I was chasing for a month. It was the temp sensor o ring on the right side of the radiator. Leaked from there, hit the splash shield then ran out wherever it was easiest. Not where the actual leak was.
