This looks like the right place to ask ;D "what's the difference between ts301 & ts321 reel oil?"  Thanks, Mick

Hi Micky, the 301 is thinner, mostly used for light gear, trout fishing, or very cold conditions, cheers Don.

TSI 301 has a solvent mixed with the lube, and the solvent evaporates away. TSI 321 is just the lubrication material without the solvent.

yeah, i think that it's 10-20% lubricant and 80-90% solvent. 
send me an email at alantani@yahoo.com for questions!

Buy the TSI321 it travels better ;) The 301 is prone to leaking when shipped.
I simply dilute the 321 with IPA - ratio 5 parts IPA to 1 part 321 - apply a drop or 2 to a spool bearing - the IPA evaporates and leaves a thin film of oil - then admire the free spool.
As a bearing oil it outlasts any other that I've tried. I also use it on the joints of pliers, cutters, secateurs etc. Not cheap but worth it.
Now Mr. Manufacturer after that plug can I have a free sample ;D
