EnginALL - what is it?

[SamSpade]

Came across the EnginALL product while surfing.

It disparages PTFE, chlorinated paraffins, moly and zinc. So I suppose it's neither one of those.

Some excerpts:
Quote:
Enginall’s proprietary blend adheres to engine metal surfaces during engine heating, providing a self sacrificing, protective, lubricating layer, reducing wear on pistons, rings and bearings.


Quote:
With use, Enginall, which acts much like lead but is non-toxic, will actually adhere to cylinder walls, where it forms a microscopic lubricating layer, preventing “Dry Start up”, which is the time when most engine wear occurs.


Quote:
Our additive, EnginAll disassociates from the oil and literally adheres (molecularly) at the point of friction.


Quote:
- Price: $24.95, 5 oz Bottle EnginAll Oil Additive
- To be effective, EnginAll must be added to your engine oil at every oil change.


I'm not going to buy it. Just curious what it contains.

So what is it?

Seems like something to lighten your wallet. Just a wild guess though.

So, you have too add this stuff at every oil change and it costs $24.95. Not me.

I know ... but what is it?

molecularly adheres? and you MUST add it at every oil change???

75.00 for this crrap,if you change at every 3,000 miles? where's the savings in using this?

Sounds like every additive on the market today, just "not cost effective" in the long run.

 

[c3po]

If you are not going to use it, why would you care what it is made out of.

So that if someone asks me about it (or a future similar product), I could give a credible and educated answer, and not just "Oh it's just like all the others!"

I could rattle on to someone about the bad effects of PTFE, chlorinated paraffins, too much moly, too much zinc ... but for this one I want to know what it is first.
