Re: What kind of Oil for Air tools?

A inline oiler always scared me, I would be afraid I'd forget and use a spray gun with it.

2-3 drops a day will make them last a long time, also dont exceed the 90PSI rating most tools have, this wears them out quickly too.

Also be careful oiling your DA or Mudhog or airboard,or any other tool your using to do bodywork the oil blows out the exhaust in tiny droplets and gets all over your work and if you dont get it removed complely hello Mr. Fisheye!

Put a drop in them and rev it for a few seconds then start your work is how I was taught, alot of bodymen dont use oil in them at all but it'll cut the life of the tool drastically.
