So I read somewhere (another thread I think) that baby oil is essentially mineral oil with a little scent added. We have some upstairs (near the baby!) So I grabbed that. Couple of drops and it's now squeak free AND smooth opening Thanks gents.
Yes, but you can purchase straight mineral oil in the laxative section of your druggist, or pharmacy. I use mineral oil due it doesn't wash out of the razor as easy as thinner oils.
Brylcreem ingredients; Water, mineral oil, beeswax, fragrance, calcium hydroxide, BHT, dimethyl oxazolidine, magnesium sulfate, and stearic acid. That tip saved me a trip to the store. Baby Oil works well.
I've never smelled anybody's canoe that smelled like baby powder. Maybe a stinky ditch or a swamp, but not baby powder.
