Alternative to clipper oil??

[MillionDollar]

I normally use Barrier Natural Fine Clipper Oil, but I can't find it in-stock anywhere!? I can't use normal Lister clipper oil, etc as one of my horses reacts quite badly to it. Does anyone have another alternative??

I once picked up the wrong bottle and used hoof oil by mistake, lol... it worked though.

Site called Trot2 sell it for £7.50 I couldnt get the link to work or I would have posted it for you

WD40?? Yes, I know you're technically not meant to use it, but I do use it on the odd occasion when I have run out of 'official' clipper oil and it seems fine.

I use unscented baby oil when I run out of the proper stuff, doesn't seem to cause any problems, its just white mineral oil, but I do try to use clipper oil most of the time.

One of my horses reacts as well, and I was told years ago to give him a strong Dettol wash down after clipping. Have not had any hives/etc since then!

baby oil every time, works a treat x

Will give baby oil a go, thanks everyone!

Trot2 don't have Barrier in-stock either I'm guessing they're not making it anymore.

I use valve oil (musical instrument one that its!) and that works well
