I would like to source a material the name of which i dont know,It would useualy be found in the corner of most tool rooms in a heated pot,It was amber in coulour, A bit like treacle,The toolmakers would use it to protect freshly sharpened cutters of all sorts as it prohibited rust and stopped the cutters etc chipping,One would just simply dip the cutter in it wait a few seconds and the job was done,Is this material still available?And can it be purchased?

Hi Patrick,Thanks for taking the trouble to let me know that there is a branch of Cromwells realativly near me,I may bite the bullet and drive over there when the weather becomes a little more clemant,However, As the years go by and i grow a little older my driving circles seem to get smaller and smaller,So much so That Norwich is now almost abroad! lol,Best regards Charlie,
