Anything small and clean will do so that the tests are fair.

I only need a very small amount to test.

Right, a 1-litre can has just arrived on my doormat.....

Want to send me a spice jar full for testing just to see what it contains?

If you do then PM me and we'll organise it.

I can see the need for new body shells on a yearly basis, but you are correct in that the engines can be made to last forever. 1) if the car makers sneeze the oil companies shake in their boots. engine oil has always been made only just good enough. Car makers make a lot of money selling engines, pistons, rings etc. the oil companies make their oils only just to exceed the car makers specs. 2) Bejing Mining Co uses RESTORE in their entire Volvo Truck fleet. Beijing didn't buy any pistons liners cranks or blocks for 4 years. Volvo sent a hi-power team to find out who was making knock-off Volvo truck parts. What they found was a RESTORE Metal Treatment program in place. Beijing was rebuilding the truck engines every 500,000 km but was simply re-assembling the old engines with new rubber hoses, seals and gaskets but with the ORIGINAL pistons rings cranks and main and con rod bearings because there was nothing wrong with the parts (due to RESTORE). So you are quite correct, engine wear metal can last forever with RESTORE in the lubricant program. Yes, old engines could be recycled into the latest body shells. thks dave

Two things happen in parallel. 1) after RESTORE is introduced the heat and pressure is reduced in the wear points so the heat attraction and burnishing effect on the RESTORE particles is reduced. 2) as miles go by the CSL particles are used up in the engine until by the next oil change there are no more left to circulate. that is why we recommend 5% RESTORE by oil volume for maintenance and up to 30% by volume for a major repair. the art is all about calculating how many particles the engine needs to completely repair itself. dave

Hi Brucey, OK so 120 million cans sold mainly in USA and Canada where every car has a catalytic converter, and not one catalytic converter has been compromised. thanks dave

I've posted chemical analysis of both slick 50 and ZX1 before.

I personally would not touch either with your bargepoles but then again as I've said before, it's not my car and I only ever use proper fully synthetic oils.

Fair comment, but at least you'll have the useful benefit of a real-life test (i.e. me) to confirm that the stuff doesn't work.

-what do you expect to see when you stick this stuff in a (hopefully) perfectly decent engine???

God only knows, Brucey. Sure I'll let ye know if it all goes horribly wrong

Not quiet, just reading with interest.

Personally I'm not convinced but then again it's your car not mine.

My aversion to oil addatives is well known on these boards and does not need to be restated.

I've gone through "Slick-50" and "ZX-1" in past years, neither of which did my M30 engine any damage (now sitting on 155,000 miles). I'm game for a laugh where this type of thing is concerned, so I'll be testing this Ametech stuff mixed with the usual Castrol Magnatec 10W-40 at next oil change which is imminent....
