My "lat" can of cutiing oil wandered off, so I went to the local
Borg to buy some more. All that they had was pints of "dark" thread
cuttiing oil (Oatey 30203), so I bought that.
I'll be using it for cutting or drillling iron/steel.
What's the difference? For Harry homeowner, does it matter?

Thanks for finding that, that makes me feel better about buying it.

Please log in for more thread options FWIW (I have no qualifications to speak of except enthusiasm and experience
acquired through a string of failures), I use Rapid Tap for both tapping and
drilling. It seems to do the trick on holes up to 3/8" (I seldom do any
bigger).

Please log in for more thread options Hey Michael,
Rapid Tap (trade name) is great stuff, but it gives off a less than
desirable plume of fumes if "heated", as by drilling or turning, so
watch out.
One of the Rapid Tap products is labeled as being "non-staining" for
Aluminum. I've never seen the difference when it is used on anything
else, so that is what I use. Same problem with the smoke though!.
Take care.
