I've run Lubeguard Red in every A/T I've owned for the last 25 years for that very reason (cooling).
I believe that the 'Platinum' LG is used as a 'converter' (ie: convert Dexron III into a fluid suitable for SPIII, Honda Z1 etc...)
I think LG Red is what's recommended when you are using the specified fluid.
LubeGard Red contains cleaning esters and a touch of AW additive. I would not use the Platinum as it contains more FM, which is not needed, regardless of what ILI tells you.
