Review: Great drilling lubricant without the mess! - First of all, this stuff works. Greatly facilitates drilling in stainless steel. I'm sure it is equally effective with other metals. Not only does it make drilling faster, but it also keeps your drill bits shaper longer. But the best thing about it is that it is so much cleaner than the messy oil-based lubricants I've used in the past. Sure it can splatter a little or get on your hands but since it's water based, it just wipes right off. What a joy. I swear, in the past I sometimes did not use lubricant just because of the mess. No longer. Give this stuff a try. You'll love it!

Significantly less heat in steel, stainless steel, aluminum which means it works. I was skeptical at first. Used it in drill presses lathes and some milling operations. Working really good in tapping and reaming.
