TG's Rocket Fuel
YELLOW LABEL
Yellow Label was the first in the TG Developments range which was discovered
and developed for use initially with the centrifugally braked ABU Ambassadeur 6500CT
and other models in the 5000, 6000 & 7000 ranges by Tony Gittins in 1987.
Similarly sized reels from other manufactures such as those from Daiwa, Dam, Shimano, Penn etc.,
also saw dramatic improvements in their performance when using Rocketfuel.
Subsequent technical developments, such as magnetically controlled braking systems,
and ceramic Rocketbearings have created a need for a greater variety of products,
which allow the individual user to maximise their potential with liquid control.

For the 525 you should use red label RF which is slower then the yellow as the reel runs a bit fast especially if you are not used to multis. The yellow rf is used on the 6500 or the 7ht. The 525 mag extra is more branding than that different though there's been complaints that the quality on the newer 525s isn't what it was. The main difference is it has two spare mags that you can mount in the mag block as well as the four that are already there to slow the reel down further. There was a lot of complaints about the original 525 mag running to fast but I never had a issue with it. If your using 0.35mm line just leave at least 1mm from the edge. More if the reel blows up on you. The spool should just barely float from side to side.
