LT9X can be used as a chlorine-free additive to boost performance or replace depleted additives in a wide variety of honing and cutting oils. Mixing LT9X in a one-to-one ratio with mineral oil makes a formulation similar to MB-30 Honing Oil. NOTE: Choose a mineral oil that is severely solvent refined or severely hydrotreated and has a viscosity of 50-100 sus. Avoid high wax content mineral oils.
