Hi Randy,

Thanks for the reference Randy. Am not sure at all, whether such would
work with crossed rod hinges/suspensions.

Do you have the green liquid variety, or the spray variety; and if so, can
it
"bead up" like between two metal rods similar to "regular oils", or, does
it flow away? I get the impression it is meant for just very thin film
applications.

Their web site states it is partially water soluable...which kind of makes
me wonder, it it would more or less evaporate, and leave a concentration
that might hinder a crossed rod suspension. "Think" it might also have
a paraffin like substance therein. Have really no opinion or real
knowledge on synthetic oils; other than what I've read where; some
holological (clock/time users) people, seem to kind of lean away from
any synthetic oils....but, at the same time...others like some of them.

Take care, Meredith Lamb
