We are back with our Product of the Month. How does varnish impact your business? Varnish buildup reduces a lubricant’s heat transfer properties and causes your system to run hotter and hotter. This causes de-rated equipment, unplanned shutdowns, and inefficient operation. This also increases your maintenance labor, management and spending.

We had a successful employee training at our Colorado Springs location on Saturday. Thank you to all who attended.

Shoco was proud to be a part of the Belair Shoot on Friday, and even came out with a second place win!

It’s a beautiful Friday at our Shoco Springs location as we set up for our in-house lubrication training tomorrow for employees.

Throwback to an old Sam Hill Oil truck.

Did you know that 90% of the ash clogging your Diesel Particulate Filter is from the lubricants you are using? That also contributes to your downtime due to regens. Specially formulated for on-highway applications ADF 600 produces 60% less ash compared to today’s low ash engine oils. No one else in the market has this, and you could get a rebate of up to $2500 on your first order. Give us a call today!

We are back with our Product of the Month Vartech. How does varnish build up in your system? Chevron says, high operating temperatures deplete protective additives in your oils and cause it to degrade over time. Oxidation of products, contaminants and more can start to precipitate out of the oil. These deposits attach themselves to equipment surfaces and build up over time, forming a coating of varnish that quickly begins its dirty work.

Changing your engine oil can look daunting, but we are here to help make that transition painless and easy. If you have been thinking about switching to the new Delo 600 ADF you can get a rebate of up to $2500 on your first order. Talk to your salesman today, or give our office a call to learn more 303-289-1677

New Product of the Month! This month we have Chevron’s Vartech. What is Vartech? It is an industrial systems cleaner that helps clean your system of varnish build up. It can be added directly to your existing oil during operation to clean up your system before your next scheduled oil change.

Shoco Oil had the pleasure of sponsoring and participating in a sporting clays shoot at Kiowa creek this weekend, supporting Bennett FFA.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing moms out there! We hope your day is special.

#TBT Throwback to when we were asking “where are Scott and Mike now” doing their ISOCLEAN skid rollouts. Our ISOCLEAN program has been the fastest growing program in Chevron’s history. Learn more about it HERE. 

Did you know each piece of equipment has an OEM cleanliness standard for an optimal life. Are you meeting those standards? If you are not you could be shortening the life of your equipment by up to 4 times. When you receive oil from your supplier, you are expecting new clean oil, unfortunately that is not the case. At each exchange of custody from the refinery to the end customer there are ample opportunities for contamination to find its way into your product. Our ISOCLEAN lubricants take the guess work out for you and guarantees meeting or exceeding OEM ISO cleanliness standards at the time of delivery. This program will help extend the life of your equipment and your bottom line.

#TBT Throwback to a few Christmas’ back when we made this amazing Sam Hill Express for the Brighton parade of lights, winning first prize!

Contaminants don’t discriminate, it’s not only dirt and particles that can effect your lubricants but water as well. Read more HERE to see how water can wreck havoc on your equipment.

Wishing everyone a happy and safe New Years Day. We want to thank all of our amazing customers for a great year. We here at Shoco are looking forward to a great brand new year with new innovative technology for our customers. What will we do next?

Reminder that all our locations will be closed Friday 1/1/21 for the New Year. We hope everyone enjoys the last few days of the year and 2021 can be better for all.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas from our Shoco family to yours!

Happy Christmas week! Here are the times for our locations during these next holiday weeks.

New oil is not clean oil. Lubricants pick up contaminants at every step in the chain of custody. That is why we created our ISOCLEAN program and certify that when you get your oil it meets all OEM specifications. See just how much your oil cleanliness changes at each step HERE.

Have you been eyeing a Yeti cooler for quite some time now? Well we can help you with that, you have the chance to earn yourself a Yeti from Shoco! Check out our video to learn more!

Contaminants can affect your equipment at every step of the way. Do you know where your contaminants are coming from and what you can do about it? This short video shows you where those contaminants come from.

One of the most common questions we get when explaining our ISOCLEAN program is, “Isn’t my new oil already clean when I get it? Can’t I just use a filter?”. The answer, simply, is No and here’s why.

Happy International Women’s Day to all the strong incredible women out there.

Happy Friday! Have you seen our Yeti promo? You can earn yourself your very own Shoco Yeti, check out our video and Sammy will explain the rest.

Remodel update! We are about 2 weeks into our office face lift and this is how it’s looking. Head over to our Facebook page and tell us what you think.

Contamination costs you money. Here is an example of just how much it can cost you in one year. We want to help you keep your money and help keep your equipment up and running with our ISOCLEAN program. For more information check out our website.

We’re back with a new Meet the Team Tuesday!

This is John he is pretty new to us working at our Shoco Commerce City location in the warehouse.

Fun Fact: John loves spending his free time skiing with his kids.

If you have been following along these past couple weeks we have been talking about fuel in the winter and how these colder temperatures can cause gelling, and what exactly happens when your fuel filter does gel. Now we are moving on to what you can do about it!

There are additives that when added to diesel fuel will cause the wax to form needle shaped crystals instead of globs which allows the crystals to pass through the filter without clogging it. These additives are more effective within certain temperature ranges than others and in general become less effective and can have little or no effect as fuel temperatures approach single digits and lower. The good news is that the Cloud Point of diesel can be lowered by the addition and blending of kerosene (or #1 fuel) into the diesel. A 20% blend of #1 diesel with #2 diesel can result in a 10 degree improvement in the cold filter plugging point.

From all of us here at Shoco, we wish you happy very happy Turkey Day!

What a good looking snow day, all 3 of our locations are open for whatever you may need! If you are out on the roads stay safe today.

Happy Thanksgiving week! Here are our hours for our Shoco Commerce City location. Please note that Brighton and Shoco Springs will have their same hours as well.

Gelling in your diesel fuel, what is it and how does it happen?

One of diesel fuel’s most important components is wax or paraffin in the fuel. Normally this wax is dissolved in the fuel but when the fuel temperature is lowered enough, this wax begins to crystallize and form solid particles. As these particles increase in size, they will eventually plug fuel filters and fuel lines starving the engine of the fuel it needs to run. The formation of wax crystals due to fuel cooling can happen at temperatures as high as 40°F in poor quality fuel but usually occurs when fuel temperatures go below 32°F and lower. This phenomenon is also referred to as fuel gelling.

Our Shoco Premium Diesel has additives to help keep your diesel from gelling at lower temperatures, especially on chilly days like today. Call us today!

We recently did an oil change on a Denver Gardner blower motor for one of our customers using ISOCLEAN lubricants. As you can see it coming out of the machine after 30 days of use it still looks brand new! Start Clean, Stay Clean, just see for yourself.

Oil cleanliness is important for your equipment life and your bottom line. Are you taking every step possible to take care of your equipment and budget? Here is why oil cleanliness is so important.

Our November Product of the Month is our Shoco 80/20 Winter Blend fuel.

As we head into the colder winter months the risk of your diesel fuel gelling becomes greater. In upcoming posts we will talk about what gelling is, how it happens, and how our 80/20 Winter Blend fuel can help you avoid it. Stay tuned!

Thank you to all our brave Veterans.

Team Shoco had a great day participating in the Oilfield Turkey Shoot.

Hot or cold, temperature effects your oil and here is how.

We will let Sammy explain it all, watch here!

Starting clean is an important first step in protecting your equipment. There are factors in your own shop that can cause contamination in your clean oil. Check out where your contamination can come from.

Just added a new box truck to our fleet! Now we just need our signature SHOCO look.

Detecting soot in your oil is important for you equipment’s life, here are some options.

It’s not only dirt and particulates that can effect your lubricants, but water as well. Here is how water can effect your equipment.

We are very excited to announce that our renovations in our Springs office are complete. Check out our sweet new counter tops!

Happy first day of October! Remember October is Breast Cancer awareness month, so go and get those puppies checked!

It’s not only important to Start Clean with your ISOCLEAN lubricants but equally as important to Stay Clean.

Happy Hump Day! We are back with another What’s in the Lab Wednesday. Today we have the dimulsibility test, put simply this test measures a lubricants ability to separate from water.

Happy Fall everyone! We have a late visitor here at Shoco, what do you think it is? Head over to our Facebook page and tell us what you think.

Our promotion is still running! Have you been thinking about switching to our ISOCLEAN products? Well if you do you have a chance to earn a Shoco Oil Yeti cooler! Check out our video and Sammy will explain how it works.

Clean oil does not come from just starting clean, you also have to take measures in your own shop to help keep contaminants out of your lubricants. Luckily we are the experts and would love to help you.

Today we remember the day that we will never forget, and remember all those who lost their lives.

“Fluid contamination is the No. 1 cause of hydraulic system failures”. Start with our ISOCLEAN program, start with clean oil and extend the life of your equipment. Here are some tips for better oil filtration.

This week we have our Foam Tester. We use a 200 ml sample of oil as air is pushed through the long tube to make the oil foam. The foam must collapse in a certain amount of time to pass. This process is used to test the anti foam additives in lubricants.

Welcome back to another team Shoco profile. Today we would like to introduce you to Lyle. This is Lyle’s second year with Shoco, he works as one of our Frac Fueling Technicians.

Fun Fact: Lyle loves long walks around a good lake and loves the Broncos.

Happy Friday Everyone! In observance of Labor Day all 3 of our locations (Brighton, Commerce City, and Colorado Springs) will be closed Monday 9/2. We will resume normal hours at all locations on Tuesday 9/3. Have a great weekend!

Contaminants in your oil can cause your equipment harm. A clean oil program is where you need to start to help protect your equipment.

What’s in the Lab Wednesday.

Here we are another Wednesday, other piece of equipment in our state of the art lab. Today we have the RDE (Rotating Disc Electrode Atomic Emission Spectrometer). In the most simple terms this machine analyzes 24 different elements within an oil sample, it’s also a fun one to watch!

Stop by next week for more.

The Shoco team enjoyed a day on the golf course supporting the fight against breast cancer in the T-off 4 Tatas golf tournament.

If you haven’t seen our video by now we highly suggest you do, trust us you will get a good laugh out of it. You may also qualify to earn a Shoco Yeti! Go ahead… give it a watch.

Time for another segment of What’s In the Lab Wednesdays!
If you’ve been following along, a few weeks ago we debuted a machine called a Sonicator. Well now we have the next step in that process. After the sonicator remove all air bubbles from a sample we run it through this machine called the Laser Net Fines. The tube on the right draws in the sample where a small laser inside counts every particle in the oil and dispenses it again on the other side. Note that it does not count water or air bubbles. This then gives us a particle count per milliliter for that sample.

Say hello to Ignacio.

Ignacio works at our Shoco Location in Commerce City handling trucks washes and warehouse duties for 20+ years.

At every exchange of custody oil gets more and more contaminants. Our ISOCLEAN program can guarantee your oil clean on delivery to your tanks and equipment.

Watch this video to see why your new oil might not be clean oil.

As a continuation from last week’s post, we move on in our process. After we pull the oil through the filter we then remove the filter and place it under a microscope. From there we can view all the contaminants in the oil sample that are invisible to the eye. This is called a “Patch Test”.

It’s Tuesday… Time to meet another member of our team.

Today we have Josh.

Josh has been working for Shoco just under 4 years, he is our everything maintenance man. Anything any one of our locations needs he is there to get it done.

Fun Fact: Josh loves to hunt and fish.

Scott, Becky and Mike were on the road again last week. They were doing another skid roll out at Northern Metalic in Grand Prairie, Alberta Canada. They also got a cool opportunity to ride in this King Fischer, it was a bumpy ride.

It’s Wednesday… so what is in our lab today!

Today we have our filtration stand and vacuum pump. With these machines we pour in 25 mg of an oil sample into the top of the stand. We then use the pumps to pull the oil through the filter. Why you ask? This is the first step to attain a “patch test” which we will show you next week. So make sure to stop by next Wednesday!

Clean lubricants are essential to your equipment’s health! If you still aren’t sure, take a look at this video that helps explain the benefits of clean oil and your machines.

It’s time for another What’s In the Lab Wednesday!

Today we are featuring the Sonicator. This machine vibrates to remove all air bubbles for a sample to prepare it to be run through our featured machine next week. Take a look!

Welcome back to another Meet the Team Tuesday!

Today we have Rodney. Rodney has been working for Shoco for just over two years now and is our salesman for the Shoco Springs location.

Fun Fact: Rodney has been all over the world. 37 states and 29 countries to be exact. His favorite thing to do while traveling is trying the local cuisine.

New oil, is not clean oil. Did you know at every step in the chain of custody there are opportunities for contamination in your oil? With our ISOCLEAN program, you can be guaranteed your oil is clean.

It’s Tuesday… you know what that means, another Meet the Team Tuesday!
