Once more I got in a hurry and knocked over my can of moly lube. What a mess! and yes, I'm am a slow learner. Solution was to Gorilla glue a magnet to the bottom of the can and then put a piece of aluminum plate in the bottom of the can so that my drifts and punches wouldn't 'stick'. Keith....

mix the graphite or moly in beeswax, that way it is a stick.

What do you use the moly lube for?

the lube is used for punches and drfits to prevent their binding to the work piece Paul. The "Moly"bdium(sp?) is mixed in solution with graphite, dishsoap, and water to make an effective mixture for the application. Uri Hofi is a proponent of it, and if I'm right, invented the mix

Thanks, I am learning more every day.

if you check the 1000 series BPs you will find a reference to it; I'm not going to tell you which one, so you have to absorb them all! :)
