The only light oil I know is the 3 in one stuff, but I don't know how
it holds up over a year or so. Does it tend to gum up or does it stay
thin?





Try a gun shop, or a sewing-machine repair place.

My parents used to call 3 in 1 sewing machine oil. I searched
Amazon for sewing machine oil out of curiosity. 3 in 1 was in the
results. http://tinyurl.com/agfhq3k


My parents used to have the stuff called "sewing machine oil". In my
opinion, it's the same thing as 3 in 1 oil, minus the odor.
Oil is oil, it just the thickness that matters.... both of these are a
very thin oil.

Why is it called "3 in 1" anyhow? Does anyone know?


Lubricating, penetrating, cleaning.

Dang! That's why she called her feller by that name! ^_^
