No, and I never will. Many weasel words and language used throughout their site. Maybe I missed it, but I can't find any API, SAE, or ILSAC qualifications for their oils.
I've got certification for "Transportation of Dangerous Goods" here in Canada (part of my truck driving license) and no TDG placards are required for any lube oils, including of course conventional and synthetic. The green people imply that their oils are not required to be placarded and that all others are. Wrong.
I just finished some research on Evans Cooling system coolants for a customer with an old Aston Martin, and convinced him that, like these oils, there is nothing advantageous, and possibly disadvantageous, in using products like these.
Snake oil really.
