It is effective though. Just horrible to remove when it's put on heavily.

I once bought a Chinese 4 jaw chuck with D1-4 mounting, it looked like the put the chuck in the box, then pushed the hose through the side and pumped the box full.  I opened the box and it was a solid red mass of Chinese cosmolene, for a few moments I question the chuck was actually in the box.  I put the chuck in a 5 gallon pail, filled the pail to about the 4 gallon mark, with white kerosene, left it for 2 weeks (stirring it daily) and it still took another 8-10 hours to get it clean. I had to admit there was not any rust on it.

Did you happen to insult someone in China?
