Where has all the Zerex Gone?

We can't seem to find any of the Zerex G-05 at the usual retail outlets here in South Jersey. Does anyone know what's going on and where we can get it?

Best Regards,
Rob

This place will sell you two gallons for about $25 and ship it free through the end of the month.

Sears will ship it to me free, also. But none of the usual suspects - AutoZone, Pep Boys, K-Mart, Walmart, etc. - have it on the shelf or on their websites anymore. The Napa stores close early around here but I'll see if I can swing by tomorrow to check them out.

NAPA has always carried the full line of Valvoline products. One of the few reasons I visit Napa. Used to get it at PepBoys

NAPA seems to be the only place to find it in these parts - bought two gallons this morning. Thank you all for your help.

Best Regards,
Rob

Found the MB stuff for $17/gal, so that's your price to beat.

Things may have changed in the last forty years. When I worked in the truck shop right after the Army, our radiator shop vendor told me that radiators that had been containing Zerex for any length of time looked like a lawn sprinkler when tested after the vat process.

That was forty years ago, and lots of things have changed. Radiator materials have changed and maybe even Zerex has changed, but since the radiator guy told me that I've always used any anti freeze besides Zerex.

My $0.02,
