Been slinging paint half the day. Dining room is done and now we get to move on to the foyer which is freaking 20’ tall and the walls and ceiling all need paint.

Moving up in the world to see what the fuss is all about. Been using STHL ultra from the beginning. Amazon decided they could ship one gallon for $67 (total/shipped), and I found some 200cc syringes on amazon as well. So 2gal jug gets 190cc of red juice for a 40:1 ratio.
I calibrated it too with 10cc just to double check lol.

Depending how old you engines are you will be cleaning some black muck of your planes for a while but yes I like the stuff it seems to work well. Not not sure what it does to canisters.

Redline is the best stuff. No smoke, pistons/cylinders get deep cleansing, and the stabilizers built into it keep the fuel fresh for a long time.

I was concerned about switching because I haven’t found anywhere that suggests it uses fuel stabilizers like STHL Ultra... still looking

"Fuel Stability - Red Line Two-Cycle lubricants will dissolve in gasoline at ratios of at least 15:1 and will not separate in even freezing conditions. Red Line Two-Cycle Alcohol is soluble in methanol at ratios of up to 5:1 at 70°F and 15:1 at 32°F. Red Line Two-Cycle lubricants will help stabilize fuels and prevent rust for seasonal storage."
