Scent free gun oil?

Perch74 · Post by **Perch74** » Tue Mar 20, 2007 6:10 pm

Does anyone know of scent free gun oil. l like to put some on my Phoenix before l bring it out in the bush for Turkey. Not that Turkey care but it helps all the screws from rusting. l put some gun oil on them before l put the bow away for the winter but man did it smell. l just don't want it smelling especially for deer season.
Thanks

Has anyone tried "Camellia oil"?
It is odourless and is used as a rust preventative and lubricant on any metal parts.
Originated with the Japanese,and it can be also used as a skin emollient by the ladies!
How's that for a dual function oil!
I have some,and it is a unique product.

I haven't heard of camellia oil. I would like to find some . I have used light mineral oil from the drug store. It's cheap and works good. I also use it to dress a new wood bread board too.

Here is an extract from the Blade Gallery on camellia oil.
It also works on any high carbon content steel such as gun barrels as a rust preventative:

Size: Applicator & 3 oz bottle
Description: For centuries, camellia oil has been used to protect the finest Samurai swords. A small amount applied to your carbon steel knives will keep them free of corrosion and rust. Camellia oil is non-toxic and non-allergenic. Accompanied by traditional applicator.

I just googled the name,and found one that is being sold as a metal preservative.
As I said above,it is a skin emollient,and can also be used as a food additive,being very similar to olive oil for properties.

Need some advice on how to do this,as all that shows is the bottle!
If you go to :highlandwoodworking.com, you can get a 100 ml bottle for $6.99
