Found this site and thought it might fit well in the section for those interested in servicing their watch movements. Good basic info.

The Art of Oiling in Watchmaking - Lubrication 101 — NO BS WATCHMAKER

Read this Fundamental post on Oiling in Watchmaking. I go over the reasons why we oil, common oilers, frequently used lubricants, dos and donts, and the history of oiling. This should serve as a broad definitive guide to the art of oiling in watchmaking.

Very interesting, thank you for this information. Every now and then I tinker around with a few cheap AAA reps that I bought in the early days. However, I'm not messing around with my good reps, I don't dare try it yet.
