Cermax Performance Ceramic Synthetic Oil Value Package — Engine Treatment + SiC Motor Oil in One Kit
The Cermax Performance Value Package bundles everything you need to give your gas engine permanent ceramic protection and ongoing SiC-enhanced lubrication. Includes Cerma STM-3® Engine Treatment (one-time ceramic bonding) plus 5 quarts of Cermax Ceramic Synthetic Motor Oil — in your choice of viscosity.
One package. Complete engine protection. Save vs buying separately.
📦 What's Included
| Product | Size | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Cerma STM-3 Engine Treatment | 2 oz | One-time ceramic bonding — permanently seals SiC into engine metal |
| Cermax Ceramic Synthetic Motor Oil | 5 quarts | SiC-enhanced synthetic oil — ongoing ceramic protection with every oil change |
🔧 Available Viscosities
Select the viscosity that matches your vehicle manufacturer's recommendation:
- 0W-20 — Modern fuel-efficient engines (Toyota, Honda, Subaru, Hyundai, many 2015+ vehicles)
- 5W-20 — Ford, GM, Chrysler, many domestic vehicles
- 5W-30 — Most popular grade, broad compatibility
- 5W-40 — European vehicles, turbo engines, higher-performance applications
- 10W-30 — Older engines, warm climates, classic vehicles
- 10W-40 — High-mileage engines, heavy-duty applications
✅ Why the Value Package Works
The Cerma Performance Value Package delivers two layers of ceramic protection:
Layer 1 — Cerma STM-3 Engine Treatment (one-time): Nano Silicon Carbide particles permanently bond to your engine's internal metal surfaces — cylinders, pistons, rings, bearings, cams. This creates a permanent SiC ceramic matrix with Mohs 9.5 hardness that survives every oil change.
Layer 2 — Cermax Ceramic Synthetic Motor Oil (ongoing): SiC-enhanced synthetic oil continues to deliver fresh ceramic particles with every oil change, maintaining and reinforcing the ceramic protection. Cermax oil also eliminates the need for Cerma Turbo Nano Treatment — the oil formula already protects non-ferrous (aluminum, bronze) turbo components.
💡 Best of both worlds: The Engine Treatment creates a permanent ceramic foundation. The Cermax Oil reinforces it and protects the components that the treatment alone doesn't reach (non-ferrous metals like aluminum turbo housings and bronze bushings). Together, they provide more complete protection than either product alone.
📋 The Cerma Protocol — How to Apply
| Step | Action | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Step 1 | Add Engine Treatment to existing oil | Pour the 2oz STM-3 Engine Treatment into your oil fill port. Drive normally. |
| Step 2 | Drive at least 1,500 miles | This allows the SiC particles to fully bond to your engine's metal surfaces. |
| Step 3 | Change to Cermax Ceramic Synthetic Oil | Drain old oil and refill with the 5 quarts of Cermax oil from this package. |
⚠️ Important: Do NOT add the Engine Treatment and Cermax Oil at the same time. The Engine Treatment needs to work with your existing oil for at least 1,500 miles first to properly bond the SiC ceramic to your engine's metal surfaces. After the bonding period, switch to Cermax Oil.
⚡ Optional Add-Ons
| Add-On | For | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Turbo Nano Treatment (1oz) | Turbocharged engines | Only needed if using your own oil brand. Cermax Oil already includes non-ferrous protection. |
| Transmission Treatment (2oz) | All vehicles | Ceramic protection for automatic or manual transmissions ($70.40) |
🛡️ Why Cermax Ceramic Oil vs Regular Synthetic
| Feature | Cermax Ceramic Synthetic | Standard Synthetic Oil |
|---|---|---|
| Technology | SiC Nano Silicon Carbide in oil | Standard additive package |
| Ceramic Protection | ✅ Yes — continuous SiC delivery | ❌ No |
| Non-Ferrous Protection | ✅ Built-in (no Turbo Nano needed) | ❌ No |
| Oil Change Interval | Up to 30,000 miles | 5,000–10,000 miles typical |
| Contains PTFE/Teflon | ✅ No — PTFE-free | ⚠️ Some do |

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I add the treatment and oil at the same time?
The Cerma STM-3 Engine Treatment needs to work with your existing oil to properly bond SiC particles to your engine's metal surfaces. This bonding process takes approximately 1,500 miles. If you add the treatment to Cermax Oil simultaneously, the SiC particles in the oil compete with the treatment, reducing the effectiveness of the permanent bonding process. Follow the protocol: treatment first, drive 1,500 miles, then switch to Cermax Oil.
Which viscosity should I choose?
Always use the viscosity recommended in your vehicle's owner's manual. Common recommendations: 0W-20 for most modern Toyota, Honda, Subaru, Hyundai. 5W-20 for most Ford, GM, Chrysler. 5W-30 for broad compatibility. 5W-40 for European and turbo engines. 10W-30/10W-40 for older or high-mileage engines. If unsure, check your oil cap or owner's manual.
Do I need the Turbo Nano Treatment add-on?
Not if you're using Cermax Ceramic Motor Oil from this package. Cermax Oil already contains SiC protection for non-ferrous components (aluminum turbo housings, bronze bushings). The Turbo Nano Treatment is only needed if you use your own oil brand instead of Cermax after the Engine Treatment protocol.
How long can I go between oil changes with Cermax Oil?
Cermax Ceramic Synthetic Motor Oil supports extended change intervals of up to 30,000 miles due to the SiC ceramic particles that keep oil cleaner and reduce thermal breakdown. Always follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended intervals as a baseline, and consider oil analysis for the most accurate change schedule.
Is this package for gas engines only?
This Value Package is designed for gas engines. The 2oz Engine Treatment treats all gas engines (4–8 cylinders). For diesel engines, sizing varies by displacement — see Cerma Diesel Engine Treatment for proper sizing (2oz–12oz depending on engine size).
How much do I save vs buying separately?
The Value Package is priced at $183.43, which bundles the Engine Treatment and 5 quarts of Cermax Oil at a discount compared to purchasing each item individually. You also get the convenience of having everything in one shipment with matched viscosity.
Made in the USA by Cerma Treatment (Bijou Inc.), Fort Myers, FL. 30-day return policy. Free shipping on orders over $150. Ships to US & Canada. Questions? Call 239-344-9861 or email info@cermatreatment.com.

Frequently Asked Questions
Alright, so I added the small bottle of additive to my engine after a fresh oil change. I performed the addition EXACTLY as prescribed in the instructions. I know that my engine has significant blow-by and it really needs a ring job (or rebuilding) but I was just trying a temporary stopgap measure. I ran and drove the engine and it was very difficult to really get a measure of improvement, but I do know that after about a week, I took my ole'truck on a little road trip. After about 6 hours of driving I needed fuel, so I decided to check the oil level. The dipstick was dry. So, I added a quart of oil. waited a bit. Still dry. So I added another quart. Then waited about 45 minutes. Still dry. Repeated again, but this time the stick read a quart low. So I added the oil and saw it was in the middle/top of the stick and was off on my merry way. Ford inline-6 is so very forgiving.
That being said, the product did not work for me, but it may be because my engine is too far gone for anything less than a complete rebuild.
