Default XADO: atomic metal conditioner

Has anyone used XADO atomic metal conitioner? I ran across an ad in Motor Trend mag. It promotes engine lube n protection good for 100,000 miles.

All of those additives are just voodoo crap. I agree, just use a good quality oil and forget those things. Now, adding a little cleaner in the gas, like maybe SeaFoam, I agree with.

BS marketing just like the Teflon additives of 20 yrs ago which dropped out and solidified in the bottom of the oil bag .

This kind of crap is targeted at solid bearing engines in auto's & bigger applications , Harley engines are almost all roller & ball bearing two completely different animals here .
