How hard is it for any known oil to squirm in amongst scores of
close-fitting engine parts? It's hard. Hence all Winter oil ads
rightly tell you that even a worn, loosened-up engine needs extra
fast oil-flow this season.
Free-flowing Conoco Germ Processed oil holds records for
speedy flow in any cold. And yet Conoco asks you earnestly:
WHY BE SATISFIED WITH ANY FREE-FLOW ALONE, WHEN
YOU CAN JUST AS EASILY HAVE THE RE-DOUBLED
INSURANCE OF AN OIL-PLATED ENGINE?
Only an OIL-PLATED engine is lubricated for every cold start
in advance whole hours and days before any mere free-flowing
oil can do one single wiggle 1
Germ Process action on every working part creates OIL
PLATING. It becomes a part of all surfaces. It cannot drain down.
It stays up without interruption, forever ready to speed your
starter and preserve your engine every inch of the way thi3 Winter.
Oil level stays up, too, once your Conoco Mileage Merchant puts
in your correct Winter grade of Germ Processed oil.
