Re: Lard Oil for clipper sharpening wheels

Update:
Here is the plumber's lard oil after a night in the refrigerator, notice the color change (the half gallon mason jar next to it contains a quart of odorless paint thinner)



Note the viscosity at 34°f



After you pour the plumber's lard oil into the odorless paint thinner you will see solids that formed in the inside of the container, do not use this stuff just discard it.



Here is the final product after mixed with the odorless paint thinner (1:1)



I hope that this helps you save some time and money

Re: Lard Oil for clipper sharpening wheels

Bill,

Thank you for all the work you went through to show this to us! It is very informative to say the least. I am going to give it a try. I have customers in other countries that need to know how to do this as they cannot get lard oil in most other countries so this is great! Thank you!
