Default Has anyone used "Restore" and engine additive before

I saw this stuff at walmart and it sad if you add one can to your oil it will help clean up your valvetrain and help restore your engines's performance and compresson. What do you guys think?

Well what happened is the person who had my civic before me didn't take care of it that well. The valvetrain has a lot of oil build up. I'm going to use some seafoam on my next oil change and i hope that will clean it up but i can't find seafoam anywhere. Does anyone know where i can get some?

autozone can probably order it for you, oh and by the way, if you ever tear down a motor pour some of that engine restore stuff on your valve train and then tell me that it doesnt work at all. i wanted to know the same thing so when my motor went and i tore t down i got bored and wanted to find out, it did clean it, not spotless by any means but it got some stuff off.
