MOST are highly refined chemically treated petroleum oils, but some

Not only:

I got a non-working grandfather clock.

I put the innards in a hydrosonic batch for a couple of hours (don't ask me
to describe the resultant solution - it was gross). In my legacy drawer was
a small bottle of watch oil left me by my grandfather.

The oil was made from real whales.

Clock works fine, now.
