Not distilled. You only want distilled! Normal water, bottle, house etc all have minerals in it that will corrode stuff.

When I do 100% water plus water wetter it's really not 100%. I just drain the radiator till it stops dripping. The block, water pump etc will still have regular antifreeze in it so in the end you may have something like 90% water, 9% antifreeze and 1% water wetter.
