Reinauer Transportation Companies of New York has been using Tufoil in all their Tugboats and cranes - both into the engines and gearboxes for over 20 years.

You may want to contact them:

Attn: Mr. Christian Reinauer

We quote Christian,

" Most advertised oil additives are full of empty promises and that fuels the skepticism that additives are a waste of money and can be harmful to your engine. I recommend TUFOIL where ever you need to get longer engine or equipment life as well as lower fuel consumption. If you're still a skeptic, try using TUFOIL where you have nothing to lose. You never know...YOU MIGHT BE IMPRESSED! "

Use Tufoil as a gear treatment in manual gearboxes and differentials.

It is too slippery for use as an additive into automatic gearboxes.

Do not get confused.

Just about 5% of volume of gear oil. In most cases, about half a bottle of Tufoil.

that day i saw somewhere in the advert in paper,i cant remember where,but stated onli put little onli,if 2l of gearbox oil juz add 1 tablespoon,if more than juz interpolate la...bcoz the problem in putting to gearbox is that u want to lowered down the operating temperature of the transmission without making it slip...if too much it might be slippery for ur transmission,correct me if im wrong,

For manual transmission, a 5% mix of Tufoil with high grade gear oil will help out in reducing operating temperatures and smoother shiftings of gears. It will not cause gears to slip.
