Will ammonia and antifreeze mix as it does with water?
Ammonia (Damages copper/brass fittings) and alcohol mix well in water. Imagine your Urea in a toilet and alcohol and brake fluid (water rusts brake components, replace brake fluid regularly) is hygroscopic which "sucks" attracts moisture out of the air surrounding these fluids. Alcohol is impossible to remove all moisture completely. This is the reason 99.9% alcohol fluids is the strongest concentration you can buy and listed as a damaging solvent. 40 proof or 20% alcohol in hard liquor is average. 30% ethanol by weight (60% proof) should freeze at -20°C. Your 90 proof spirits (45% by weight) would freeze at about -30°C. 25oz alcohol to one gallon water protects from freezing -5 F / -20C
