Only 18.95 for 12 oz bottle on Amazon. Sounds like the Teflon stuff sold in the eighties. Slick 50 ? Not something I would use.

OP, if you use this a few times , I would love to see an oil analysis from black stone lab.

I want to see the magic that gives a roughly 15%-20% boost in fuel economy via changing some characteristic of the engine oil via an additive. Given the time, talent, and treasure auto makers invest in staying CAFE compliant they'll feel pretty dumb once they hear they could have just bought this instead.

It would help to know what's in the bottle. My BS detector went off when the mpg increase was mentioned.

Nah bruh! you're the gullible one. We have over 10y of used oil analyst info on this forum that proves otherwise...

Lubegard is the only one that showed a improving when added with certain oils.

Please post actual proof, until then you're just blowing smoke .... lol...

All one has to do is look on the bottle, it says right on there, this is a zddp additive. Technically, one could consider this an oil additive that can combat new low zinc oils. However, it is very poorly done, no white paper just some total who shot john summary. And some bull jive about diamond particle, lol. In order to form a plate, you need a bonding agent. Moly uses sulfur and zinc uses phos = MoDTC and ZDDP. No bonding agent, no film. The issue we have proven with hemi tick is zinc in the form of zddp which is an aw additive is just not strong enough in the high pressure location of tick, thus we have proven moly in the form of MoDTC is the correct additive. Drop this additive and try some Lubegard Biotech. They didn't post the sds, as long as this doesnt have chlorine I'd say harmless to try on engine, well cats another issue I don't know the zddp level. lots of unknowns here.

btw, chlorine is a binding agent as well, one of the best at dealing with friction but with one downside, it can cause damage in the engine.
