I'd assume that's what AOC is. Good stuff.

Right on , I have immediate family in Lutz. But , I live in northwest Lakeland.
Do you think that's the same oil a Amalie Elixir full syn ?

Thanks bb.

I can answer this question, I used to work at Safety-Kleen, the worlds largest waste oil re-refiner, Super Tech oil is re-refined oil from Safety-Kleen systems, their facility is near Chicago, all of the collected waste oil gets shipped there where it is distilled.
Once distilled all that is left is 100% clean pure base stock, which is then sold, additives added and made back into brand new motor oil.
Full synthetics get the synthetic additives, dino juice gets the dino additives, viscosity modifiers etc.
All oils are of the same base stock, ATF, gear oil and motor oil. Safety-Kleen does sell their branded lubricating oils, which the US military uses, my oldest son is a mechanic in the Army and confirmed this for me.
The only difference between Super Tech and other oils is the quality of the additive packages and the name on the bottle.
The base stock never ever wears out, it is only the additive's that wear out,
This is true for all oils and coolants.
The additives wear out and the base stock gets contaminated, replenish the additives and clean the base stock and it is as good as new.
Pretty cool stuff.

Since the beginning of the year Supertech oil filters have been made by Wix.

I thought ST was made by WPP out of the Nebraska area? Why the WPP/WNE on bottom of my quarts and jugs?

I know it's Safety-Kleen stuff up here, but I thought it was different in the States, and different depending on the location in the States, too.
As far as I know it's all Safety-Kleen, it's just shipped to anywhere and then bottled by who ever.
I don't believe that is the case around the US. It is sourced regionally by however is nearest. The bottle in this thread has an aoc on the bottom of it and the container is just like Amalie. That oil is made by Amalie in that area in Florida and points near by there. Warren PNE makes it for the region near them and Citgo makes it for the region near them. Safety clean may well make it for a region near their place has well. But it is not likely a Nationwide distribution. I could be wrong about this but I kind of don't think so.

It's a miracle they can make anything out of those big dump bins at the local parts houses. Lord only knows what gets dumped in those things...

Dad just got some quarts SAE 30HD Super Tech and 15w40 ST oils. All have WPP on bottom so no Safety Kleen here in SW PA

No filtration needed, distilled. Heat used oil under high pressure, VOC's boil off, they are condensed, repeat twice more.
Whats left is 100% clean and pure base stock. All contaminates settle to the bottom of the still, they are then collected and burned as fuel for various things, like power plants.
Metals are recycled. Non combustibles that cannot be recycled are sent to a landfill. All the ash is used as firtalizer for fields.
