Hi mate, was it molyslip or something similar?

Please don't be tempted to use a friction modifier, such as Molyslip, in a syncromesh gearbox!
If this is for a different application, and not for any component that uses yellow metals in its internals where extreme pressure tribology is potentially damaging, then perhaps a recommendation could be made, based on the exact nature of the intended use.
I couldn't find a matching advertisement but if someone can, then the precise information relating to whether the product suits the intended use will be easy to find, so here's hoping that one of us can find that ad.

Stay safe yourself, and good luck with your search.

When I asked my wife if there was anything special that she might like for Christmas and she answered that she would love some lorry oil, I thought that it was a result, I've got plenty of access to that. It was only after she had unwrapped the five gallon drum that I learned it was spelt L'Oréal.

It's probably for limited slip diffs. Check out redline gear oil on their website. They have a comprehensive coverage tool that will show gear oil with the additive in place.
