Balistol lubricant ,, It was originally made for lock smiths back in the 70's .
Oop's, originally made for the German army;
"At the turn of the century, the imperial German Army
(the Wehrmacht) began to look for an all-around oil.
The idea was to maintain the metallic parts of the
soldier’s rifle but also to protect the wooden stocks
and his leather gear. The soldier was to use the same
oil for the treatment of minor wounds, sores, and
scratches.
Friedrich’s son, Dr. Helmut Klever, had become a
professor of chemistry at the Technical University of
Karisruhe. He set out to develop what the Army
wanted. In 1904 he succeeded to produce a special oil
which he named “BALLISTOL” from the word
“ballistic” and the Latin word for oil “oleum.” Thus the
descriptive meaning of the word BALLISTOL is
ballistic oil. It soon became obvious that the new
wonder oil had truly amazing capabilities. The Army
tested it and adopted it in 1905 and it stayed in use
until 1945."
