Frequently Asked Questions
1. What's the difference between Boron CLS Bond treatment and oil additives?
Boron CLS Bond is a solid boundary lubricant, which forms a permanent and self-replenishing layer of triclinic layers of crystals on all metal surfaces. It is not an additive to enhance the oil properties; rather, the oil is only the catalyst to carry the Boron to the surface.
Oil additives such as Slick 50 are PTFE (Teflon) based, chemistry developed at DuPont are not for fluid systems. DuPont states: “There is no evidence that Teflon reduces friction in fluid systems”. Another additive used is molybdenum, an additive presently in base oil to help resist friction.
2. Why do I add Boron CLS Bond treatment one time?
The chemistry of the CLS (Crystal Lattice Structure), a triclinic layer of three platelets replenishes itself through the interaction of boric acid, boric oxide, air and moisture in a continuous cycle. No matter how many times you change your oil it will not affect the permanent solid boundary lubricant layer.
3. I noticed my engine runs cooler and the RPM’s drop at idle, is that normal?
The benefits of friction reduced by 80% are many. In this case friction heat is reduced 40-50% allowing the engine to run cooler and dramatically reducing the oxidation process. The RPM drop is also as a result of less friction allowing the engine to increase its power using less energy.
4. Can I extend my oil change intervals?
Yes. Oil does not wear out; it becomes dirty as a result of inefficient filtration or a lack of a permanent boundary lubricant protecting the metal surfaces from wear particles. The most damaging particles in any fluid system are under 5 microns in size and a major catalyst reacting adversely with the additive package and the carbon molecular structure of the oil. This results in the oil becoming acidic and corrosive thus accelerating the wear process and energy consumption.
The Boron CLS Bond permanent surface is 85% hardness of a diamond and virtually eliminates particle generation and adverse chemical reactions with the metal surface.
Employing this superior protection oil drains can safely be extended 4 times depending upon the environment with NO loss of energy or power. We offer an oil analysis program to monitor your oil and set a condition based oil drain schedule.
5. Will the Boron CLS Bond treatment help the mechanical efficiency of high mileage engines?
The aggressive nature of the Boron to bond with its host will displace carbon, dirt and varnish and create a new seal in the piston cylinder walls restoring the efficiency of the engine. In high mileage engines it is necessary to change the filter at 2000 miles as a result of the displaced debris deposited into the filter. Also. In high mileage transmissions it will be required to change the filter and fluid also.
6. Will installing the Boron CLS Bond treatment void my manufacturer warranty?
No. Boron CLS Bond is not an oil additive as stated previously. To the contrary, a major warranty company offers car manufacturers a 100,000-mile warranty if the engine is treated with the Boron CLS Bond technology and an additional 100,000 if reinstalled at 100,000 miles. As manufacturers become aware of the Boron technology they are installing it at the OEM level to reduce warranty claims by 85% on engines - making up 40% of claims.
