Case lube with Pledge furniture polish?

One Shot for workaday sizing applications. RCBS case lube for necking down, forming, any heavy work.
Economizing is wise until it isn't.

Hmm, we were taught, in Utah, that it was Wyoming. You know....Wyoming! Where men are men, women are scarce and shee..................

Button fly was invented because sheep can hear a zipper up to a half mile away.

I'll have to try coconut oil and the canola oil. I've been using lanolin but it's sticky as F after and the cases need thorough cleaning afterwards to eliminate it.

And all the Montana boys stand around and laugh at the guy who hasn't finished yet because the one he cut outta the herd is ugly.

I used to use that. Now use 50% coconut oil & 50% IPA (99%).
Even less expensive, cleans off easier, the mix doesn't separate like lanolin/ipa, doesn't discolor your brass, and you dont smell like you had a ewe in some galoshes.

Now that's my idea of a good time...YeeHaw

I have no direct knowledge/proof......There was a story that used to float around about cowboy boots, and a cliff.

I tried Pam cooking spray. God-awful mess.

So it does make your fingers stink. I knew it!

Nice thing about lanolin or coconut oil, it makes your hand soft and I don't worry about side effects. However, the rough and tumble crowd here be thinking you've been hanging with Rosie Palms when they shake your hand....

I'm liking the coconut oil idea, I just need to figure out how I can thin it enough to put in a spray bottle.

I didn't bother. I ladle the mix onto this tray to saturate the felt and then I press on a set of cases with my palm, push them enough to coat the whole case and they're ready to go. I get interrupted a lot, so having only a few ready at a time prevents me having to clean them off.
You learn to calibrate the mix/felt amount. With lanolin spray, I used to have a problem with dented shoulders. With the coconut, it's extremely rare.
Cannot remember where I got the tray, probably goodwill.

I currently do the ISO and lanolin. Works amazingly well for lubrication, but if left to sit for awhile it does become quite sticky. Had a pretty hard time getting it off the inside of the plastic tub I was using to hold the lubed brass.

'Bout spit my damned coffee all over.

Lol, yep. I had to toss a couple as it was impossible to get off.

I use large zip lock bags now. Just toss them afterwards.
