Spelled “additive” wrong. Lost all respect
uh how do you spell it ?
Definition of additive (Entry 2 of 2)
: a substance added to another in relatively small amounts to effect a desired change in properties
Read the back label
Quite likely a counterfeit product. I find it hard to believe that a big company like RL would let this slip through.
Bought from a Redline dealer
Well then, that's very odd. Labels printed in China perhaps? I'd be loathe to lose confidence in a well-known and respected brand based on a single spelling error.
Dealar, maybe.
Wow you'd hope for the price of it they'd proofread their label.
Perhaps that's how the intended market for this product expects the word to be spelled.
I see an amazon sticker on the back so I'm guessing that's where you bought it from?
I'm super curious if it is counterfeit.
If you google image the product, the back label looks different
Your label does have french on it though so it could have been a product destined for the Canadian market and a mistake was made with the spelling.

Quite a few red flags there! He said he bought it from a Redline dealer. The lack of french on the back, while it is present on the front is another.
No french on the front label on the Redline website:
Engine Oil Break-In Additive
Provides conventional motor oils with antiwear additives like zinc and phosphorus (ZDDP) necessary to protect against camshaft and valvetrain damage on break-in
You bought it??
Considering how much I see misspelled words around, I’m not surprised.
What is a "Redline Dealer"?
