At work we use a mixture of mineral oil and parafin wax to spray on the mixers to keep the concrete from sticking to the paint/metal.

Then some of the experienced driver told me to keep the oil off the rubber parts of the truck. The oil has adverse effects on rubber.

I wasn't advocating using the tranny fluid. That stuff is way too slick. Got some on my tires once and ended up facing the other direction.
