Hi Guys

I have a paddle strop on it's way with a bottle of chromium oxide. I have searched the forums to find out if I can use camelia oil to apply the cro?
Does anyone in the UK have any advice if this oil is ok or an alternative as I wouldn't know where to get neatsfoot/mink oil here. Some say baby oil is ok but I want to know as this is a strop I do not want to mess up.
Thanks
