How long will this product be visible after it is added to machine oil?

It stayed visible in engine oil (Mobil -1-), for at least 1500 miles. I believe that it remains visible until oil change. This is desirable if you are looking for a slow leak.

Can this dye be used in coolant/antifreeze also?

This product is only meant to work with oil. I would not recommend using this in your cooling system.

What quantity of dye per quart of oil do I need for transmission fluid

The manufacturer's instructions state that the dilution ratio is 1 oz. of Dye-Lite TP-3400 (fluorescent leak detection dye) for every 12 quarts of automatic transmission fluid. The ratio for engine oil is 0.5 oz. per 4-6 quarts. For additional information about the product you can contact, Tracer Products, at 800-641-1133 or www.tracerline.com.

Oil already glows under a black light how does this help

We use black light to find leaks in big diesel engines. Engine oil (at least the ones we use), diesel fuel and coolant do not glow under black light.
