If you are looking for quantity, just buy a 16oz bottle of Corrosionx.  It's all pretty much the same stuff, I cut it with a lighter synthetic oil if required.

  Here is what Steve was speaking of.

There are oils that will give more bearing speed which can lead to better casting.

Personally I've not found an oil that last as long & still gives good casting... Jeff
