Ah but is that a good recommendation? Maybe it was the oil that caused the accident that did for Cliff? In which case surely that's the last oil to use...

Yeah, that oil was too thin to provide sufficient protection to the metallica surfaces.  :(

[I'm not really taking it too seriously. After all, I wasn't born in Canada, but for some strange reason chose to move here. That takes a lot of humour (spelled the Canadian way).

Errr, I think you'll find that's an English spelling Dear Boy - Queen's English you know, from England...nothing Canadian about that! You know the score - you "North Americans" pronounce tomato "to-may-toe" and we pronounce it correctly  ;D  ;D  ;D
I'm from England, but most Canadian words are officially spelled the English way, although most places understand both. You need a Canadian Collins Dictionary.

There is a whole cross reference word problem & pronunciation issue.

The oil you use truly needs to adhere to all surfaces evenly

Should we change this topic to "shameless oil thread"?  That's pretty much what it is now.  After all, I'm posting here...     :o
