Kevin,
If you keep a light coat of oil on your tools, they won't rust.


By the way, that must be real nice, trying to use a pair of pliers that
have oil all over the handles....

Kevin,
It is best to wipe the metal parts with a light coat of oil, and not put it
on the handles or handle. If you have any other questions, let me know.

Oh, so you allo the handles to rust, huh? What an idiot. You DO
realize, don't you, that oil will hold dirt, sand and other
contaminants, don't you? You do realize that dirt and sand are
abrasive, don't you?

Kevin,
Take a deep breath and hold it .............. now slowly let the air out,
slowly counting to 10. Do you feel better now.

Most handles have either leather, rubber or plastic to provide better grip.
They don't rust. I found over 100,000 hits recommending a light coat of oil
or WD40 as an effective way to protect tools.

Yeap....my shop tools......drill press, lathe, etc, all recommend a light
coat of oil to protect against rust when not used continuously

Watching Kevin take this ridiculous stand on not using oil as a rust
preventative reminds me when Kevin was arguing that Schnapps is a whiskey
because they both were grain alcohol, then providing a link that shows
Whiskey is deferent than other grain alcohols because it must be aged in oak
barrels.

Even Harry is trying to stop Kevin from making a bigger fool of himself.

All of my major shop tools came from the factory with a light oil coating.

Then there was Kevin arguing about libel and slander, and he posted a
definition that proved himself wrong, yet he still argued the opposite. He
still hasn't recovered from the gitch slapping he received about that.

I"m not Kevin, but:

That's odd, I've got many, many pairs of pliers that DON'T have
"leather, rubber, or plastic" on them. None of my four pairs of
vicegrips do, either. My 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inch drive ratchets? Nope.
Look at Craftsman's website. How many of their open end, combination,
or box wrenches have "leather, rubber, or plastic" on them? Now, you
claim that it's good for your tools to put oil or wd40 on them? Do you
realize that those hydrocarbon based products will actually degrade
plastic and rubber? Let's see your search results that recommend oiling
your tools. Working parts of those tools, fine. But not "coating" your
tools with oil, as you've suggested. I've got tools that were my uncles
when he was an aviation mechanic during WWII. They've never, ever been
coated with oil, and are in perfect shape. Again, you do know that a
liquid that is viscous enough to stay on the tool, will also hold sand
and dirt? Again, do you realize that dirt and sand are abrasive? Do you
realize what a few grains of sand will do to a nice pair of diagonal
cutters?

God made rags to wipe excess oil from tools.

Do you realize that even Harry thinks you are an idiot. Even your hero oils
his tools to prevent rust.
