L.S. Starrett has a video that is pure camp on its website touting the ability to "stop squeaks". Is it all the website says it is?
 
In the back it says "(White) Mineral Oil" (Lists White Mineral Oil in the MSDS I found online on their website). So my question is what is the difference between their oil and oil that is called "Mineral Oil" sold for honing for example ??

Why not just "homebrew" a variant by dissolving a large jar (13 to 16 US ounce or maybe 500 grams) in a gallon of mineral spirits. For a firmer film, add some paraffin wax.... but surely the M1 has rust inhibitors in it.
