Default salt quench

Yes veg.oil is faster.If you look at, say1095s itt chart ,the nose of the curve will tell you if you need water ,oil,or if you can use salts.1095 needs to be quenched fast to harden.I use salts for 0-1 and l-6 only.I use commercial quench oils for everything else.Hope this helps.
