On a customer's insistence, I used it once.

I was taking the same junked engine out of his car later on that month.

I don't know whether the Slick 50 made a difference or not. It is just one (extreme) point - and hence has no general validity.

I haven't touched it since though!

It's only our lax consumer's laws which allows this and other cons to be sold.

>>It's only our lax consumer's laws which allows this and other cons to be sold.

But is it a con?. When you consider the amount sold/used. I often wonder. It has to be proved that any product doesnt work before it can be banned.But also think. Its unlikely any testing would be done due to cost to taxpayer. Cheaper to let the consumer decide whats best for their car.

Some of their wild claims need facts.

I also remember DuPont who make PTFE took legal action against Slick50's makers saying they did not approve the use of it in their application, and the claims they made tarnished the DuPont brand.

If you find out about the process of coating a frying pan with PTFE, you will see that merely putting lumps of it in oil and squirting it around a fast moving engine is a waste of time and won't 'coat' anything other than the oil filter media.

Here's an idea:-

I will supply you with a litre of UltraFastSpin* for just £9.95 + £3.95 p&p.

Add it to your engine oil in the cold weather and your engine will turn over faster on the starter in the morning.

Add it to your fuel tank (petrol or diesel) and you will notice the difference.**






* 100% pure paraffin
** I didn't say it was a desirable difference.
