Anyone used it and know anything about it?

Maybe Oilman (Opie Oils) could comment.

Zen Performance & Scooby Clinic use it.

Tempted to try it.

Synionic - Surface Modifying Lubrication Technology

Only just saw this post while looking for something else. Avoid synionic, it's a gimmick. It's the new name for ProLong oils and not something we'd touch with a bargepole, we were offered the deal to be the sole UK supplier and happily turned it down.

Cheers

Hi all,

I am afraid my colleague Tim has made a mistake, and based some of his post on potentially incorrect and out of date information.

Therefore I must retract the statement he has made above.

We will be having the Synionic oils tested in the next few months so that we are better informed in the future.

Regards

Guy Barnard
General Manager.

OK, can you post your opinion after testing here and whether it is better for a 500bhp GTR than Fuchs Titan.

Cheers,

oilman · 15th June 2011, 03:32 PM

Certainly will.

MMT · 15th June 2011, 09:11 PM

I'm fairly sure Scoobyclinic have this oil branded as their own.

oilman · 15th June 2011, 10:38 PM

I have heard the same thing. Many oil companies will brand what ever oil you want as your own.

Cheers

Guy

MMT · 7th July 2011, 02:06 PM

I know its not long but have you any feed back on the Synionic oil yet. As I posted earlier Scoobyclinic use this oil albeit branded as their own in their customers cars. They also claim to use it in their time attack cars as do Roger Clarke motor sport and few others.

oilman · 7th July 2011, 03:15 PM

We haven't had any results yet

MMT · 7th July 2011, 03:42 PM

Ok thanks. I'm running it in my car.

PaulAlex · 15th June 2012, 11:08 AM

I believe Litchfileds are recommending this now - so must be good?

Recommending it over what? Motul, Fuchs, Millers, Castrol?

Is it suitable for tuned and track applications?

Cheers

i assume prolong is bad then.....may i ask why please as i have a friend running this in his classic scooby and i would like to tell him why he should not use it if its bad for his car.

oilman · 22nd June 2012, 09:06 AM

I can't recommend their oils, they aren't something that we sell and they don't like me to give my honest opinion on their products
