Default Zinc Additives for Oil

I know some of you are using oils with higher levels of zinc. There are also still the zinc additives out there like ZDDP Plus and ZDDP Maxx, ect. Wonder if anyone is using these, and, if so what oil are they mixing this in with.

I was using Brad Penn which I like but don't have access to it right now and want to get my oil changes done. I have a few bottles of ZDDP Maxx sitting on the shelf but have been reading it may not be good to add foreign things to some oils as it can mess up the formulation. I don't know if this is the case with the detergents in the oil, and, if there is a certain base oil that may be better for mixing in a ZDDP product. Any further insight is greatly appreciated.
