Me again, this time on everyone's cure for cheap revolver lubricants.
I've heard of everything from vegetable oil to wax and some guys just using straight up crisco. I've heard the acidity of these household products come up in discussions before, would that be any cause for alarm? And long term storage (again ), I've heard of these vegi oils growing to the consistency of wood varnish and becoming sticky. Now I lube with wonderlube 100 (stuff is amazing) but when I run out I plan to play around with virgin olive oil as a rust preventative and lube.
Edit: Thread will focus on non-commercial products.
