I think that you would be better to do the rinse with an oil that doesn't have any esters in it.
I believe that dino Castrol GTX oil does not contain ester. That's what I'm using right now and just hit 1100 miles on my 1st Auto-rx treatment.
This is on the auto rx stuff or just as a maintenance?
IMO I think everyone should do a rinse flush once and awhile. Just pour the oil in, run a short trip or a good outage with the family or the pet or just to cruze, then return and drain, perhaps placing a few ounces of a cleaner the last 50 miles of say a 200 mile trip, and drain....
See these two threads:

Bottom line is that the GTX HM oil should not have enough esters to preclude a proper rinse phase.

Are you talking about an AutoRX rinse?
No! Castrol HM is not expensive enough, use Amsoil or Mobil 1.
If your just going to rinse and drain, why use not use a cheap dino oil for $1 per quart?

Mr. Groin - Castr.. HM should be fine, and not that expenisive
