Latama Quick Release Oil

Post by greggo »

Anybody tried this?
I found it on Ebay while hunting for Latama's of course :lol:
It's good slippery stuff. I used it on one of my swinguards at the pivot and it really loosened it up after a few flicks. Satisfied enough to do the rest of the collection.
I don't know what's in it (I'll look and see) but it's cheap and it works.
Bill DeShivs; have you heard of it?

Anyway the guys name that sells it is Tank here's his email
tbarkcustomknives@alltel.net
he said it was OK to give it out.

Yep. We had a postal mix up with my shipping and he called me direct and explained the situation and re-shipped at his extra cost. The stuff is great and under $10 w/ shipping.

When I first saw it I thought it looked too thick but then I used some and it made a great improvement on the knife I was working on so I tried it on many others and it's the best lubricant I've found. It's replaced my Tuff Glide and white lighning.

Mike and Kathy are both great people. I hope this Quick Release works out great for them. It's good stuff!!
