Most of the comments are coming from people who have never used
kerosene & a flit-gun to protect their machine tools. I suggest you
try it before wandering off in all directions. Kerosene is called
'paraffin oil' for a pretty good reason: As the kerosene evaporates
it leaves behind a layer of WAX. It is the layer of wax that protects
the surfaces of your machine tools. Cleaning it up is no problem.
Simply re-spray and wipe it off.

Some times the 'old ways' are best. I think you'll find this is one
of those times.

Kerosene can also be used for cutting oil.
