Make friends with someone who works in a college chemistry department.

D.I. might be a bit of overkill since it becomes ionized as soon as you add the coolant. I've always used steam distilled for coolant mix (not R.O. or filtered drinking water) and never had any problems. I also use it in my batteries.
