Was looking up some information this morning and I saw Valvoline has updated their website. Normally I wouldn't bother mentioning something like a website update, but I noticed a few things.
The PDS are all old, I assume they're addressing that but all the ones I looked at were from 2006 or 2007, and I know the ones I had looked at for the same products prior to the website update were all 2008 or 2009. Also, the site is running really slow right now, so perhaps some updates are still being made, I don't know.
But check out the FAQ section for different products, they're now publicly stating a lot of information that they previously weren't. Here are a couple of examples:
*What is the percentage of synthetic versus conventional motor oil in DuraBlend? 30% synthetic vs. 70% conventional.
*What group of base oils is used in the formulation of SynPower? Valvoline uses a mixture of Group III and Group IV basestocks.
These are some questions that we've been trying to figure out but most oil makers have been vague about answering. I hope other companies start coming forward with this information as well
