    That's a very weak argument. Care to elaborate?

    Belgium is known for their diamonds, chocolates, fries, waffles, beer, and Tintin. Nothing written about motor oil.

    So are most motor oils on the market. In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to find a proper oil that is not carrying any sort of certification, whether it be API and/or ACEA... Shell, Petron, Caltex, Total, Mobil, Valvoline... etc.

    Again, what is the secret sauce of this Belgian-made motor oil?

    Any proof of good quality?

    I made some googling on SMDS of Ardeca oils and most if not all have low TBN. Low TBN means the formulation have low detergency hence good for low k's usage only.

    Wow! Military-grade luggage. This is what the Swiss soldiers use in combat. Must be good.
