Reply To: Can I add a Pour point Depressent to a finished grease?

Hi @Tania.bkt ! What’s the issue that you’re facing at low temperatures? Typically it is the thickener that becomes too thick (which isn’t solved by adding a PPD). I’d be hesitant to add any additives to a grease after it has been formulated, as the manufacturing process usually requires the additive mixing in a very controlled environment.
