All of the Castrol oils that I know of have a ultraviolet additive that is
visible under that light.

You can buy an additive at any good auto parts store and put it in your oil,
but I would check you oil first with a UV light.

Has anyone here used one of these products? Are there any specific engine
types that it shouldn't be used on?

Any advice solicited.

Thanks!
