Walmart Super Tech now called Tune It !

[Smokescreen]

I just saw and ad in the WM flyer and it shows an old ST bottle with the same type of blue/yellow label, but now it has tire tracks on the top section with the Words Tune It! Then below it shows the blue portion of the label with a little badge that says formerly Super Tech. It has API sunburst. 4L for $8.88.

Has anyone else seen this.....or is it a Canadian thing?!?

tune it... lol. Interesting to see if/why they did this. Canadian ST was called Tech 2000 or something, wasnt it?

its a small pic in the flyer...this is the best I can do:

BITOG is the worst site for user friendly pic posting...

Saw this a few days ago too.

Wasn't "confidence inspiring" packaging.

SuperTech was a good brand that they built up. Killing it was not wise.

Use tinypic makes it easy....

 

[Smokescreen]

its not the pic hosting website, I have uploaded pics to many other forums...its the lame method BITOG uploads photos...it says enter an image URL...I do it...but it doesn't work.

Tech2000 was maybe 8 years ago...we have had SuperTech for some time now.

wow i dont like black bottles its hard to see if any soot is in there... i wonder if it is the same oil i guess you can smell each and come up with something

Terrible packaging. Looks like oil you would find at the dollar store.

+1

nothing was wrong with the current ST.

I would be embarrassed to put that in my shopping cart.

I hope this does not make it to the US

If they change it in the US, I wonder if WPP still has the contract.

Don't use the upload option on bitog....

Iif you use tinypic they provide the code, copy and paste, it works....

WPP is no longer supplying SuperTech in my local Walmart. I think it's Citgo now.

Thanks for taking a pic smokescreen. I agree with above, the packaging is awful.

They also brand some car care products?

Tune It

 

[crazyoildude]

i was thinking the same thing

 

[Zako2]

If this replaces Supertech that will be a terrible marketing move. Supertech products have developed a decent reputation, and now they throw it all away for new brand name?

I didn't want to make a new thread on this but I noticed that the syn oil at my local Walmart is different. The bottle is different vs the WPP I'm used to seeing. I bottle is more "upright", narrow and it didn't have the WPP stamp on the bottom.
