Keep Vape Oil Golden with AmberClear
If your oil turns red, pink, or brown after filling, you’re not alone. Our patented AmberClear process not only prevents oxidation, it actually reverses the process and keeps oil golden - no matter the flavor profile or hardware. And because color stability should be an industry standard, not a trade secret, we’re giving the knowledge away for free.
A Natural Solution to a Natural Problem
AmberClear doesn’t rely on synthetic additives or bleaching agents. It uses only cannabis-derived compounds that interact naturally with your distillate to neutralize oxidation and restore clarity. The method reinforces the oil’s internal balance, protecting it from future discoloration without altering potency, flavor, or viscosity.
This is real chemistry rooted in the plant itself - a stable, scalable system that keeps your product visually consistent while preserving everything that makes it authentic. Whether your oil is red, golden, or somewhere in between, AmberClear brings it back to the standard your brand deserves.
Inside the AmberClear Process:
Why is my distillate red?
Understand the chemistry behind oxidation and why it happens -
even with clean distillate and premium hardware.
How can I fix it?
Learn how to restore discolored oil back to golden clarity using only cannabis-derived compounds, not synthetic additives.
Does it work for good?
Get a repeatable, patented process to prevent oxidation, stabilize terpene-heavy formulations, and ensure consistent color on every run.
Perfect for Copackers Managing Bulk Oil
Copackers often hold gallons of distillate or liquid diamonds before filling. That storage time increases exposure to oxygen, heat, and repeated warming cycles, which accelerates oxidation and causes oil to darken long before it ever reaches a cartridge.
When bulk oil turns red, its value drops. Even if potency and flavor remain intact, discoloration makes the material harder to sell and more likely to be rejected by brands. That puts copackers in the position of explaining a problem they didn’t cause.
AmberClear was designed to solve this exact scenario.
Keep Bulk Oil Sellable
Unstable oil leads to reprocessing, remediation, or discounting. AmberClear minimizes those risks by preventing oxidation before it starts and by stabilizing oil that has already begun to darken.
For copackers working at scale, that means:
- Fewer rejected batches
- Less time spent troubleshooting discoloration
- More confidence delivering consistent material to brand partners
- Longer perceived shelf-life
AmberClear scales with volume and fits directly into existing workflows, making it practical for high-throughput operations that cannot afford visual instability in stored oil.
Why Color Stability Matters
Red or darkened oil doesn’t just look bad - it hurts your brand. Consumers associate discoloration with oxidation, poor quality, or expired product. Over time, that perception erodes trust and reduces repeat sales. AmberClear eliminates that risk by keeping your oil golden, stable, and visually consistent from production to point of sale. When your product looks fresh, performs reliably, and meets the highest standards of appearance, your customers notice - and your sales reflect it.
How to Prevent Vape
Oil Oxidation
Oxidation is inevitable in most formulations, but it doesn’t have to ruin your product. The AmberClear method gives you a proven way to stop the reaction before it starts by balancing reactive compounds at the molecular level.
It works across all vape hardware and terpene systems, helping you maintain color stability in even the most delicate citrus and cherry profiles. Whether you’re mixing new batches or refining old ones, AmberClear provides the consistency, clarity, and confidence that every premium product deserves.
Restore the Color of Red or Dark Distillate
Already have oil that’s turned red or brown? AmberClear can bring it back.
Our patented process can remediate oxidized distillate without using synthetic bleaching agents or harsh chemicals. Instead, it uses cannabis-derived compounds that reverse discoloration naturally, preserving potency and flavor integrity. The result is clean, clear oil that performs as good as it looks - ready for filling, packaging, and production at scale.
Fix the Red Ring for Good
Clear, golden, consistent oil.

The Science Behind AmberClear
AmberClear is a patented framework developed by Abstrax to solve one of the most persistent problems in vape manufacturing: color instability. Our R&D team mapped the chemical chain reactions that cause oxidation in terpene-heavy formulations and pinpointed the environmental factors that accelerate them.
From that research, we created a repeatable system that stabilizes color, restores clarity, and maintains the visual quality of your oil - no matter the formulation, hardware, or production scale. This guide walks through every step of that process, including viscosity benchmarking, terpene ratio calibration, environmental stress testing, and long-term performance validation across multiple hardware types.
We're sharing this framework freely because color stability should never be a trade secret. When every brand produces clean, consistent, and golden oil, everyone wins. Brands reduce waste, consumers trust what they see, and the entire vape category becomes stronger. If you're ready to put it into practice, our team can help you apply, test, and scale the method across your operation for lasting results.
SQF Certified
The first and only manufacturer of terpene-based products to achieve this certification.
This is the gold standard - FAR above and beyond the typical ISO 9001:2015 certification of other suppliers.
-
What causes vape oil to turn red or brown?
Color change is the result of oxidation - a natural chemical reaction between cannabinoids, terpenes, oxygen, heat, and light. Even when your distillate is pure and your process is clean, oxidation can still occur, especially in citrus and cherry profiles. AmberClear targets the compounds responsible for that reaction and stops the chain before it starts, keeping oil bright and golden longer.
-
Can AmberClear fix oil that's already turned red?
Yes. AmberClear doesn't just prevent oxidation - it can also remediate it. The patented process uses cannabis-derived compounds to restore clarity without synthetic additives or bleaching agents. It reverses the visible effects of oxidation while preserving potency, viscosity, and flavor so your oil looks as good as it performs.
-
Does AmberClear change the flavor or potency of my oil?
No. AmberClear works on the chemical level to stabilize color, not to alter flavor or cannabinoid composition. Because it's built entirely from cannabis-derived compounds, it integrates seamlessly into your formulation. The end result is clean, consistent oil that maintains the same flavor, potency, and performance profile you intended.
-
Is AmberClear compatible with all hardware and formulations?
Yes. AmberClear was developed and tested across a wide range of hardware types, terpene ratios, and viscosity levels. The framework is fully adaptable to different manufacturing setups, from small-batch operators to high-volume production lines. Whether your oil is citrus-heavy or neutral, AmberClear keeps color stability consistent across every format.
-
Why does color stability matter for vape products?
Color directly affects how consumers judge quality. When oil turns red or brown, buyers often assume it has degraded, even if it still performs exactly as intended. Oxidized oil functions the same, but perception drives sales—and discolored cartridges tend to sit on shelves longer. AmberClear helps brands avoid that issue by keeping oil clear, consistent, and visually appealing, so every product looks as fresh as it feels.
-
Are THCA–terpene solutions shelf-stable?
No. Because THCA can recrystallize ("crash out") and terpenes are light-sensitive, these mixtures should be used within 4-8h after preparing the solution. If you must store them overnight, keep the sealed amber jar at room temperature and shielded from light. After 24 h, you may re-homogenize the mixture, but purity, potency, color, and flavor cannot be guaranteed.
-
How should I heat pure terpenes safely?
Abstrax terpene blends are derived from natural sources and degrade more readily under heat and light. Never exceed 60°C (140°F) when heating pure terpenes, and limit exposure to approx. 15 min at that temperature to preserve aroma and color.
-
Does THCA particle size affect dissolution?
Yes. Finer THCA powder dissolves much more quickly in terpenes than large crystals. If only large diamonds are available, gently grind them with a mortar and pestle or industrial grinder—wear appropriate respiratory protection to avoid inhaling dust.
-
How should I store liquid diamonds before and after formulation?
Upon formulating using the Abstrax AmberClear process, the resulting oil will be color stable under ambient air and temperatures (70-80°C) for up to 6 months and beyond. Nonetheless, we always recommend storing under an inert gas such as nitrogen, argon, or CO2 if possible prior to usage in their final cartridge application.
