I had some ticking from my lifters and used some lifter free additive.

Car is now silent.

What does this stuff do?
And if I don't use it next oil change, will the lifters start making noise again?
 
Probably a strong solvent to get junk out. Like a Beryman B-12 chemtool or similar.

Link? MSDS?

Probably not, it probably cleaned up the junk that was causing the lifters to tick. I would skip it next OCI and see what happens.
 
I also have noisy lifters and stuck a bottle of nulon lifter free in with my last lot of oil, the car was much quieter almost straight away but after I changed my oil it's just as noisy as before

Who knows you may be lucky and mine may be too far gone, but the effects went with the oil in my case
