We are definitely in uncertain times with two of the 14 trains of the GTL plant being destroyed in Qatar as well as the Saudi Aramco refinery in Bahrain. I have been told the refinery will be down potentially for a year’s time and the GTL facility being a one-of-a-kind facility in the world may...

Sorry Matt, I’ve not been around here much Short version is there are both weak base and strong base within di pack the week base will give up fairly soon and you’ll run up against the wall of the more robust alkaline material. From that point, your rate of drop will be very slow. It is a...

All is good. We have a few broken windows, but everything else is fine. The tornado passed within 6 miles of us. For those that the tornado touched it’s a completely different story. We are very blessed.

Just let me know when you’re in the area. A little bit of advanced notice would help and you are certainly welcome to come visit our house.

We are definitely working with Driven. There is no wide paint brush approach. We are doing what Driven would like to have for each of the products they are adding to their product line.

Our 40 grades are still built in synthetic base stocks, which have good low temperature properties. We do not run CCS and MRV on these but it may reach a 20 or 25W without VI improver in the formula. If I were in 100° temp consistently and needed a generator oil would I use this absolutely. We...

My understanding is that Shopify is currently down worldwide. Unfortunately, we cannot even currently see orders because of this we will extend our sale through tomorrow and hopefully they will get their issues resolved soon.

There are esters that do and there are esters that don’t. It is important to understand that before making blanket statements that “they don’t”

For reference, Here is a picture of the Moly additive in neat form. Much like a diesel oil that leaves a black color which is not a film either this will have an effect on the color of the oil film sitting on the surface. You would likely see the same thing with an oil dyed green or purple if...

Chris, we responded with the same thing at the same time. How funny.

I don’t believe that we are seeing varnish in this picture. I think Bryce is actually correct in that the high moly concentration (which is what gives the oil its dark color) is leaving a colored oil film on the surface. It’s hard to tell for sure from Chicago. It would help if people actually...

Les was one of the best people and the finest mentors you could ever hope to have in your facility. We learned so much in our time together and will sadly miss him. One of the motivations and passions of his was his books. He often mentioned that there’s so much information that needs to be...

100% truth right here

Good evening I apologize for the delay. I have a pair of wranglers as well. The ATF for these is our ATF Green. We also have an all PAO version for cold climate depending on where you’re located. David
