Guess its sheep based,,auto rust protection
Got to thinking,,have you lube cookers looked into this stuff??at the least it would be a very cheap source for lanolin???

Fantastic stuff!!! I'm buying a 5 gallon bucket soon and an air gun to spray it. The aerosol cans I've been using as a test are about empty. Stinks to high heaven IMO, and I raise sheep. Eric O at South Main Auto (You Tube) says his wife suggested adding cinnamon oil (??? Didn't know there was such a thing) to the 55 gallon drum they have and it killed the smell.

But as a lube ingredient I would think it's got too many solvents for practical use.

Yes, great for rust protection.
Among the best !
There's a kid on You Tube that does rustproofing professionally, among other things. He did a test over a few years and says the stuff the makers of PB Blaster put out is better than Fluid Film or Wool Wax. I can't imagine anything being that much better than Fluid Film for auto rust protection of other than brand new, factory clean metal (cosmoline shines there) but he makes a decent argument.

Years ago I worked at an indoor mariculture facility where we wheeled the food around on those 4-wheel carts furniture movers use. Because of the salt in the air from splatter from the aerators, as well as the temp (82 F) and humidity, the bearings in the wheels quickly rusted out (along with every other piece of ferrous metal in the place). Fluid film was the only thing that slowed the rust.

I cleaned and hosed down a whole bunch of vises, saws, and sundry shop equipment and tooling last year. Within a few hours at least a score of amorous Scotsmen in high boots came calling. I still wonder about the connection....

Did anyone else have to look up the word "mariculture"? I thought it might be related to THC type cultivation at first... ;)

I take a dim view of the pot smokers lack of ambition but I applaud basic freedom. There's a Jonathan Edward's song with a lyric that's "Lay around the shanty mama and put a good buzz on."

I have no idea how people live like that don't have the drive to work, save, plan for the future, invest in the economy. But then I have this attitude about winning so.....

Oh yes there are! And many more than that. Dropped my wife off at a mountain church quilting retreat last fall and overheard some old ladies talking about which of the pot stores had the best dope. Been popular since the 1930's.
