Interesting to see Sasol is also entering this market.

I'd be interested to know what's in it. Is it lead based or other heavy metal (LRP uses manganese; potentially more toxic than lead).

I noticed in Germany you could buy lead additive for older cars. My friend with a 1949 Beetle says he uses the lead additive in every third tankful of fuel, as he says it leaves a lead residue on the valves which lasts for a while. He's had no valve seat issues on his 25hp engine.
