Well, when I built my Visible V-8, they recommended the use of vegetable • oil;
I used canola and didn't have any problems with it. I haven't yet had to
lubricate my pneumatics stuff yet, so I don't know about that particular

is a very mild vegetable oil, and will wash off with water, anyway. If you • do
use it, a little bit will go a long way.
