What type of oil should you use to lubricate this capper? The box says to lubricate it but doesn't specify with what.

I have a small bottle of lubricating oil that I use for my hand gun. Use very little, works like a charm. A lot cheaper than olive oil!

I have not oiled mine yet but I'd probably go with what I use to oil my grain mill, olive oil.

I am not the manufacturer and I really do not care what oil is used. If you need the information so desperately contact the manufacture directly and ask, instead of using us to do the work for you. Thank you.

I have not had an issue with it while not using the lubrication. Personally, I don't think it needs it. I had an older one that worked fine without that as well. Hope this helps! :)

It called Hoppe's #9 Precision Sportsmen's Lube used for Firearms, Archery Equipment & Fishing Reels. It's a light lubricating oil ( a bit like 3in One oil) Usually a light type of grease is used on most type of ( metal) bearings.. A solvent would remove any type of oil...or grease.

I use Passion. It's a "natural water based lubricant." I would assume any water based lube would be good use. Have fun with it.

Mine doesn't do that, and I'm not a mechanic. Lubrication sounds reasonable, but I don't know. Sorry.

We suggest our Fleshlube water based lubricant for the Fleshlight products. Any water based lubricant will work. Thanks- FLESHLIGHT Official Store

Product will work with any oil. I used it on my synthetic oil. It will work with any fluid as long as it is not really thick. I had issues with the first one I purchased maintaining suction, it worked but I had to constantly pump. The company was very good about replacing it for a new one. Haven't had to change the oil since I got the new unit, so I can'ts speak to how it does.

You can use any oil. I use vegetable oil in mine and it works great! Stores do sell popcorn oil as well, it just depends on your preference.

I personally would not use it for a lubricant, i use distilled water in a spray bottle. but like peanut says "sure can" then go for it...

I have used two bottles so far and the ball is popping off, thus spilling out a good amount of oil. Has anyone found a different bottle that is better quality. I'm using frankincense neat. Thank you in advance!

You can use any corn oil. I always purchase my popper supplies in bulk from Sam's Club.

ONLY use air tool oil, not something like 3in1, etc. Regular oil might "diesel", air oil will not.

Hi John, my suggestion would be to go to any hardware store and buy a tube of lubricant. It is specially made for different types of metals and it looks like vaseline. Sometimes it is tinted blue. Depending on what size of tube you get, it will probably run you anywhere from 5-10 bucks. Thank you for choosing Goedekers. If you have any questions please cal 1-888-768-1710.

Yes, you do need to use a lubricant. I used Griot's Speed Shine liberally and it worked great.

On the bottle is says "Lubricating Oil." No other description is provided. I don't recall what might have been on the packaging.

I would suggest using real water based lube .... cleans up easier and will keep the product in great shape.
