Have you tried ordering HPL products via their distributor?

Didn’t have one for Australia last time I checked. Might have changed.

I would email Mary Jane at [email protected] and see if she can ship to foreign locations.

Looked at that quite some time ago. Far too expensive.

Started using ARX many years ago. After getting a good amount of gunk out of 2 well maintained cars, I was sold on it. Used it at maintenance level for many years but then stopped. Started using it again a couple of years ago.

What if you do a retirement gig and become the down under wholesale distributor? They ship stuff in a container, you sell from a storage place?

And certainly, those edifices erected utilizing the Roman and Greek orders of architecture, utilized the highest quality of raw material around; hence, they have survived the passage of time.

I saw what you did……….

So mote it be……..

I have read every post. In terms of Roman construction of roads, the fact their roads have withstood time is because they developed a stable multilayer foundational system to support the top layer. It had nothing to do with the concrete mix.

I never stated that the Rislone VOA proves anything. In fact, a VOA proves nothing with respect to performance.

I have used both and found HPL EC does a better job at softening and "solving" carbon.

Whatever product you decide to use, it is a good idea to change filters at half your nominal OCI.

And we can’t develop “a stable multilayer foundational system to support the top layer?”

Then again, there likely is a slight difference between a road full of Roman chariots and a highway full of Freightliners and Volvo tractor trailers………..

Requires money and time and I have neither.

I just purchased some Auto-RX Plus from Amazon.

I read a couple of times on old threads (more than a decade old) on different forums that Auto-RX was very thick and many folks were warming the bottle up before pouring.

The liquid in the bottles I just received can be shaken in the bottle very easily.

Did the formula change at some point and the Auto-RX Plus is now thinner? If not, I may have purchased some "bootleg" stuff from Amazon.

I wouldn’t put it in my lawn mower.

Good to know

I would. Used it successfully for years. Ester product.

Yes it changed years back. Does not thicken up when cold.

Ok. Thanks.

 

[oilboy123]

Auto RX now has the plus. Which does not seem to thicken up. They probably got sick of people bemoaning having to warm it. It was a pain.......I might try some of the HPL EC at some point.

The Rislone product is a good cleaner but it's formula has not changed in years.

I believe HPL's EC is better because of the latest application of technology as it contains not only a specific ester mix, but an HD DI additive package.

And I like knowing EC is either a 30 or 40 mono @ 20% …

I have used ARX in the past and actually had a very good experience. (stuck rings were liberated by ARX; documented here on the site more than a decade ago). I have a bottle left which I am going to use in my recently-acquired 2013 ES350 (replacement car for my wife). After that I will likely move to using HPL EC30 where needed.

If you used a product and had a very good experience with it, why would you go with another product? It looks like the product that you used is still available. This is just me, but if I used a product that liberated stuck rings like you have stated, I would not even think about using another product.
