a blended two-base motor oil
SOME motor oils are made from
para (line base oil, others from
naphthene. Each has good qualities
not shared by the other.
The perfect oil for the modern motor
is an exact blend of oil made from
the best paraffine and the best naphthene
bases. This ultimate oil we
have produced in grades suitable for
any motor in any climate.
Do you like your motor?
If you have that regard bordering on
affection for your motor,
drive to the nearest Gulf
Dealer and try this Gulf
Supreme Motor Oil. It lubricates
perfectly, resists
high temperatures, mini
mizes knocking, seals piston rings and
does the utmost that oil can do to give
you a smooth-running, quiet motor*...
Modern motors demand it
The high compression, the speed and
power of the modern motor demand
a two-base oil with the maximum
stamina, the sealing qualities, the
resistance to heat and wear that is
only obtainable by combining the
qualities of paraffine and naphthene
base oils*
We urge you to test Gulf
Supreme Motor Oil in your
car and judge for yourself
the improved performance
and economy of this twobase
oil.
