The website was rather fact free and the test data results were less than the margin of error of the dyno test.
I know from personal experience slick 50 doesn't work. I may give zmax a try next oil change. My father was an am soil nut, however he only got 300 thousand miles before he started burning oil and car was smoking.

I heard from a friend that Slick 50 does not work.
I know nothing more about it.
I see you did not read any data from cermastore.com - the home page
for Cerma STM-3
You might want to search again. Too bad you didn't actually search before you posted your scepticism. Severe sceptical comments posted publicized again and again can be considered slander. Be honest - at least with
yourself. Search again

Good afternoon,
I wanted to report your product results for my 2009 Kia Optima with 35k miles.
I added a bottle to the automatic transmission and have experienced a much smoother shifting pattern. Otherwise not much to report.
I added one bottle to the engine oil and have noticed a significant decrease in engine operating noise. So much that at idle I often feel as though the engine stalled out due to lack of any noise or vibration. This is a tremendous improvement over the engine operation prior to the addition of your product.
The largest single benefit seems to be an MPG improvement from 27mpg to 30 mpg which constitutes a 10% improvement.
These benefits took about 1,000 miles to really become apparent. I look forward to adding a bottle to my wife's 2003 Ford Expedition with 120k miles and I will report any changes for your records.
Sincerely, Kevin
Cermax

What is (SIC) aka Cerma with STM-3
Is SIC something new? How is it made? Below you will get the general idea of the protection Cerma is offering, SiC is nothing new, although the method of use in this case is new, Cerma was the first ever to achieve a pure SiC coating in the atmosphere of a engine and Transmission. There is no better protection for the metal within your engine or transmission. Cerma is not a magic bullet or a band-aid. Cerma is based on pure science.
Cerma's STM-3® pure Silicon Carbide is achieved by thermal decomposition of a polymer, poly(methylsilyne), under an inert atmosphere at low temperatures. Relative to the CVD process, the pyrolysis method is advantageous in treating engines or equipment because the polymer can be deposited/filmed into all area's of a running assembly,STM-3 is carried by the oil to the internal parts within the engine/equipment prior to thermalization into the ceramic. This patent pending process will allow for the formation of a perfect seal and a the formation of a perfect matting surface within the parts prior to thermalization process to ceramic is completed. (Like lapping two surfaces to a perfect fit as the Silicon Carbide hardness is achieved)
