    The RCBS or Lyman case lube has worked great for me since they are water soluble. Makes core and jacket cleaning super simple.

    For core seating or point forming I switch to the lanolin though.

    Be aware that Woolite will NOT remove annealing scale! Use Dawn for that.
    Where can I get Woolite from?

    I'm not sure where you are located, but around here Woolite is available at most Drug, Grocery stores.
    Anywhere selling laundry detergent.
