Spindle/Bearing Lube

I have a Nottingham table and the bottle of oil that came with my table is about empty. What does anybody use for oil? I see people on AA saying to use motor oil and synthetic stuff but the oil that came with my table is thicker than motor oil and it is red and smells like standing right beside a refinery. Do different tables take different oil? What oil would people suggest and where do you get it? Thank you.

I guess, Pittsflyer, you haven't visited Audiogon or AA very often! They are full of such "pseudo-scientific" nonsense, but unfortunately, nobody can "hear" the difference.

Of course A'gon and AA are also full of people who post strong opinions about things they've never actually listened to. ;-)

It takes all kinds of people to keep this place from becoming boring, which fortunately it never is.

P.S. I've never heard either oil, or even a Nottingham for that matter. Therefore I have NO opinion about any of this!

4yanx, the new oil is more of an amnber color. It still smells like an oil field.
