All Synthetics Are Not Created Equal.
(In fact, some “synthetics” are not even truly synthetic.)Spectro® Platinum Synthetic is, without
doubt, one of the finest synthetic lubricants
you can buy today, no matter what kind of
motorcycle, snowmobile, PWC or racing car
you run.
Why? Because it is a true synthetic.
Spectro Platinum Synthetic is crafted from
modern Group IV PAO (polyalphaolefin) synthetic
base stocks. These PAO molecules are
assembled from the ground up to provide
superior strength and endurance, no matter
how hard you push or long you punish them.
The Group IV synthetic molecule is thus engineered
from scratch to better resist being
sheared in the gears, and to fight degrading
oxidation due to high temperatures.
(The competitive Group III petroleum oils —
adjudged “synthetic” in the course of a long,
contentious legal proceeding — are just typical
mineral oil molecules which have been
refined to a higher level than standard petroleum.
They are fine oils, we would agree, but
they are not purpose-built starting at the
molecular level to deliver maximum
endurance.)
The advantage of true 100% synthetics isn’t
measured in lubrication qualities like “slipperiness”,
but more in longevity and
“usability”.
Easier starting at any temperature, less reaction
to temperature extremes, greater durability
and resistance to breakdown through
molecular shearing.
Spectro Platinum costs more, but delivers so
much more longevity and security.
So when you’re offered a “synthetic” at a
lesser price than Spectro Platinum, chances
are good you’re getting a lesser product.
