home made lube

[CZ223]

I have isopropyl alcohol and lanolin. How much lanolin should I mix with the alcohol?

Most report using a ratio of 1 to 10. Lightman

I have no experience with it myself but from what I've read it also depends on what percentage your alcohol is. Most recommend using 90+%.

I use 20oz of heet to 4oz of lanolin.

You don't need much, this stuff lubes really well.

I don't remember the recipe I used, but if you use LIQUID lanolin it works much better than with the solid stuff you have to dissolve in the alcohol.
