the kitty litter does soak up oil.
the cotton and reduced jpw with mineral spirits might prove out as an excellent lube cookie.
it might be able to be added into something else but don't think it would do so in anything other than clumps.
paper has binders in it which i think will create the same problems, and papers with titanium dioxide are really abrasive.
a suspension of wood would have to be dry wood pulp but getting it on the boolit would be the obstacle, paper is almost a boolit lube in it's make up. with carriers binders and modifiers.
the modified greases or a tumble coating are the two best solutions i can come up with so far, especially after all the testing i have done.
the ingredients and balances will not be the normal things we are used to.
i don't have an issue with pulverizing kitty litter instead of reducing jpw.
