Do I interpret this to mean that Maxlife qualifies for semi-synthetic status ?

If thats the case ..... I will need to extend the garage

I hear the faint sound of hooves in the distance KemoSabe....I fear a stampede is coming.

I looked for the MSDS and their website says you need to "request it" via fax. Can some confirm the 5-30 is part synthetic ?

Just type in Maxlife and all grades will come up. Find the CAS number in the MSDS and search that CAS number on this site to identify it.
