Antifreeze typically comes full strength or diluted 50/50 with water. If you are talking about full strength G-05, it should be diluted, usually 50/50, although other dilutions are possible. The instructions will talk about dilution if it is full strength. Do not use any antifreeze full strength. It will not cool as well as diluted and in some cold climates I hear it will freeze.

I think he owns one of the Jeeps with MB engine in it.
Talking about coolants, when I was never fan of Zerex, I think the manufacturer advise against using the straight concentrate.
Full strength is not always giving the best results.
That is why we drink diluted vodkas, not full strength spirits
