After looking at the thread on Felix Lube and wanting to try it, a question of some significance has arisen in my numb mind. Following the instructions/formula, I see you start out by heating 2 tablespoons of mineral oil until it starts to smoke and then add one tablespoon castor oil and stir continuously for 1/2 hour. This small amount of combined oils, heated and stirred together for 1/2 hour will leave you with nothing but a trace of gum in the pot, will it not? I can't see where the two oils will not be cooked away in that time period. Any help with this will be appreciated as I would really like ti try this concoction and see what effect it has on leading in my guns. Thank you for any help you can give.

Heat the oils to JUST or JUST short of smokeing. It works , just dont get it too hot.
Its worth the effort! GOOD STUFF!!! .......Buck
