The oil for my clippers has just run out (literally - seems that the bottle

Went to Boots, only Philips spray stuff/cleanser at £silly.
I hope that the oil isn't just light mineral oil - not the sort of stuff I
want on such implements.

Is there a 'special' oil and a source? Can't seem to find anything useful.


Baby oil would probably do and it would be safe for skin contact - it is
just a mid mineral oil.


Good idea that man!
I wonder how the manufacturers get the babies for squeezing for oil (same
for baby powder).
