Walmart Tune It! oil

If it meets API/SAE specs you can't go wrong.
Where did you hear supertech was recycled oil? Not that it's a problem, I think it's a great thing, if true.
The Original Pister I read is in Canada btw. In the U.S.A it is bottled or packaged by WPP or Warren Performance Products who make MAG1 products ;-)

Pretty sure that supertech sold in the USA is new oil, blended by WPP.
The spec sheets Ive seen from WPP indicate that there is an identical add pack used in all viscosities of their blue bottle ST oil.
Maybe the Accel oil is re-refined, no idea. Its only API SF though.
The store brand products in Canada are likely different than what we discuss about in the USA.

Api SF is for 1988 and older cars I would not use it

Hence the question here. Posts about the Canadian stuff are scarce, even on BITOG. And to clarify, I was saying that the Tune It! (Canadian Walmart stuff) was re-refined, but that is only what I have read and have no idea if it is true or not. I have been searching for the posts I read, and it would seem that perhaps I was not reading the bit about it being re-refined on BITOG, but on another site instead.

Sometimes it is, sometimes it is not.
I have seen MSDS sheets for different grades of Supertech. Some are ExxonMobil, some are Delfin, some are Citgo, some are WPP

Looks like a great buy for SM, go for it.
I'm pretty sure it's supertech oil with different labels. The Walmart 4.4L big name oil specials are a better deal anyway.

Car parts store counter jocks say a lot of stupid things. "Rebranded Supertech"? Supertech is ALREADY a Walmart brand, why would they REBRAND it?

I regularly use SuperTech now called Tune It! with no issues to report.
The product is made by Safety-Kleen. Safety-Kleen also makes EcoPower; they could be similar oils.
I requested and received MSDS sheets from WM; I have them on my PC somewhere. I can try to post or send them to you.
It is an SN rated oil; BTW.

Good to know. I would be interested in seeing the MSDS.

Contact Garak. He knows all about Canada SuperTech.
He uses QSGB I believe not Super Tech ;-)
It has been confirmed numerous times on this site that all CANADIAN Wal-Mart oils are re-refined oils, produced by Safety-Kleen, INCLUDING the full-synthetic version.
They are perfectly acceptable products that have very 'average' product data results, but meet the required specs...they are NOT junk SF oils for pre-1988 cars...etc...
Canadian and US Wal-Mart oils are completely different animals.
