Tried and tested since ’85, GT85 is found in every garage, workshop, and toolbox throughout the UK.
The formula inside the black ‘n’ red can lubes, cleans and protects, providing confidence and satisfaction to those in the know and keeping equipment at its best for longer.
From harsh transport and engineering environments to the demands of motor racing and sporting competitions, GT85® has grown and become a trusted brand both at home and at work. It’s a proven formula ideal for sports, mechanical, DIY and industrial users, and has also carved out a specialist position in cycling as the go-to maintenance spray among professionals.
GT85® reduces friction, wear and energy consumption on components, improving operating efficiency on application, and the added lavender oil leaves a pleasant scent that has since become a hallmark of the brand.
A bloke called John Chapman realised there was a need for a high quality, penetrating spray and an effective, long-term lubricant. This product not only needed to meet the high demands of his own transport company, but those of his teammates within British motorsport, one of his great passions.
With the assistance of an ex-RAF chemist, Chapman set about developing GT85®. After the trial and error of many different compositions, Chapman arrived at a formula that included PTFE, which satisfied the need for a highly effective penetrating and freeing agent.
The solution has been a resounding success and is the same quality formula that you find in your GT85® can today.
