ATS 3C CHEMICAL LAB TEST RESULTS
In this video, ATS Chemical Founder Bernie C. Thompson explains the processes and results of the laboratory test results performed with the 3C Chemicals.
CARBON SAMPLE 1
These results are from controlled laboratory testing on carbon taken from Gasoline GDI and Port engines. If Gasoline is used like a carbon removing chemical, it alone removes approximately 15% of carbon. As you can see, some of our competitors product removed less carbon than gasoline alone does. These lab tests were conducted with only 3C Chemicals A and B. Imagine how amazing the results would be with all three of the 3C Chemicals being tested!
CARBON SAMPLE 2
Not all carbon is the same. Different engines may produce different carbon types. Different fuel, oil, climates and heat cycles of the engine can alter the molecular structure of the carbon that accumulates in an engine. This is one reason why ATS hand-harvested carbon from the intakes of many different engines to formulate our chemistry for maximum effectiveness across a variety of modern carbons.
CARBON SAMPLE 3
Not all testing methods are equal. Many of our competitors use testing methods that don’t make sense, i.e. Rapid Carbon Accumulation. In order to remove oil from the carbon before weighing, some of our competitors even flash their carbon with benzene, which can change the molecular structure of the carbon. By doing this, they are testing their product on carbon that is not like the carbon in you real world engine.
CARBON SAMPLE 4
The results of this carbon sample clearly illustrates that not all carbon is the same. If it was, we should see a closer correlation across all the samples in relation to the percentage of carbon removed. All of the products tested removed a significantly greater percentage of carbon than gasoline alone. However on some different carbon types, our competitors product was less effective than standard gasoline alone.
CARBON SAMPLE 5
In addition to variations in testing methods, there are also differences in the types of carbon that is being tested. Many of our competitors use a process called Rapid Carbon Accumulation (RCA). They start by strapping a car to a dyno and run it for 5,000 to 10,000 miles in order to create carbon deposits using a special fuel that burns very dirty and causes carbon to rapidly accumulate in the engine. This carbon is not what we call ‘Real World’ carbon, where that carbon thickness would have taken 100,000 miles or more to accumulate.
CARBON SAMPLE 6
‘Real-World’ carbon is carbon that is harvested from real vehicles running under regular conditions, using the same gasoline available at the corner store. RCA carbon does not have the same heat cycles of a real world engine. Does the carbon get baked on, through hundreds of hot and cold cycles in a dyno test? What about the PCV effect? The majority of carbon accumulated in real world engines is from the Positive Crankcase Ventilation System. The dyno testing method with RCA and special fuels will never produce real world carbon. This is evident from the testing results on carbon deposits from the real world vehicles.
CARBON SAMPLE 7
The next 4 carbon types were harvested from Port Injection Gasoline engines. Although port injected engines typically do not accumulate as much carbon as GDI engines, ATS 3C Chemicals are engineered to remove this type of carbon accumulation as well!
CARBON SAMPLE 8
So why do we we make such a big deal about ‘real world’ carbon? Our competitors make claims about the effectiveness of their chemicals at removing carbon, and show some convincing lab results, but the carbon their product might remove isn’t the same as the carbon that has accumulated in your engine. If our competitors can actually remove heavy carbon deposits, where are their before and after videos?
CARBON SAMPLE 9
Not all chemicals are equal. Our 3C Chemicals aren’t just a slight variation of all the other chemicals on the market. Our chemicals are uniquely formulated and patented. No one else has managed to create what ATS Chemical has. We have spent over a decade engineering and testing our 3C Chemicals on the same carbon that is in your engine.
CARBON SAMPLE 10
In addition to being the only chemicals on that market that can actually remove real world carbon, we have worked hard to make our chemicals safe. Our 3C Chemicals and 505 Pour-Ins will not damage paint or plastic, or internal rubber seals. No skull and crossbones products are used in our formula. Our product is safe for technicians and will not adversely affect human health. Safe for the car, safe for the technician.
CARBON SAMPLE 11
Our 3C Chemicals are safe and effective for gasoline engines. Besides cleaning intakes, our chemicals are safe for turbos and exhaust after treatment systems.
*DO NOT USE 3C Chemicals in Diesel Engines, Rotary Engines or Variable Compression Engines.
CARBON SAMPLE 12
These results are from controlled laboratory testing on carbon taken from Gasoline and Port GDI engines. Gasoline alone is a good solvent and removes approximately 15% of carbon. As you can see, some of our competitors product removed less carbon than gasoline alone does. These lab tests were conducted with only 3C Chemicals A and B. Imagine how amazing the results would be with all three of the 3C Chemicals being tested!
WE HAVE A CLEAR WINNER!
ATS 3C Chemicals clearly take the lead in removing stubborn carbon deposits from engines. On average, 3C Chemicals remove more than double the amount of carbon compared to our competitors products that were tested. Our competitors struggle to remove half of the carbon that 3C Chemicals remove.
