what about andis clipper oil??? wich one of this two will be better??

The third, mineral oil from the pharmacy, Camelia oil, or DOVO's Sterol, from ClassicShaving.com

Nenad

While castor oil is an effective vomit-inducer and an even more effective political tool (remember B.M.?), I'd go with Nenad's suggestions. Mineral oil is sold in pharmacies as a very cheap laxative that's safe to ingest into human body. It's also great for protecting exposed metal.

DON'T use caseroil!

I tried it a while back and it eventually dried and was impossible to remove in some places.... If I recall, it also left a light scaring in some spots.

I'd recommend camelia oil, or if the budget is tight, mineral oil (any pharmacy/cvs will have it)

Any non biologically based mineral oil should work well.

I would reccomend mineral oil also!!

I'm sorry FiReSTaRT, but I don't get your castor oil reference. Can you explain?

Mussolini's goon squads used it to torture political opponents. Even a small amount (like a tbsp) is enough to induce vomiting. They'd force a full pint onto those poor bastards.
