That would be sludge . . . the result of oxidation. Sludge that prevents sufficient oil from getting into places it's needed. Sludge that is the first step toward lubrication failure and a big .repair bill. To retard sludge formation in new Golden Shell Motor Oil, a war-born ingredient is added during Like oxidized putty oxidized oil is no good When the putty around your window panel jets brittle and chips off. It has oxidized . . , succumbed to the same destructive force which causes iron to rust, left-over paint to harden, rubber to crack. Your motor oil, too, it subject to oxidation unless it's protected. That's why new Golden Shell motor oil has an oxidation inhibitor made right into it. X 1 manufacture . '. . an oxidation inhibitor.
