Oil Additives & Fender Flares

Quick, what does a tribologist, lubricity, and stiction have in common? If you’re thinking STAR TREK, you’re wrong! If you’re thinking oil, you’re right! You are gonna learn about all those things on this episode of GEARZ as we take a trip to Hot Shot’s Secret to see how they harness the power of science to create additives that give amazing results in both gas and diesel powered vehicles, and how it’s possible to make your oil “live long and prosper.” Next, Stacey digs into the delicate topic of missing VIN tags, titles, and paperwork, and walks thru the steps and challenges to getting your project legal so you can drive it down the road. Only on GearZ!
