since we are getting all scientific here...

Mobil 1 is amber

Royal Purple is purple.



and since purple is closer to the infrared side of the light spectrum its light transmittance is worse than that of the mobile 1...

so mobile 1 is better.

late to the party.. but thats pretty much the most useless test I've ever seen. They'd have been better off comparing mobil 1 to anal eze.
