Can Example 1 in

https://dml.cz/bitstream/handle/10338.dmlcz/119250/CommentatMathUnivCarolRetro_42-2001-2_13.pdf

be put to some use to answer the question negatively? It shows that
the zero-dimensional reflection in topological spaces does not
preserve finite products. The example uses fairly nice subspaces of R
and R^2.

With kind regards,

Andrej
