Can you explain further please...How, What and Why is an 'oil bath'?

Thanks

The bracelet was as stiff as a poker. The oil bath frees.it up a little and gives it a softer feel.

Soak in penetration oil first for a few hours. Agitate and flex it frequently

Then a more extensive soak in baby oil. Agitate frequently also.

Take it out clean it and polish with renaissance wax. I do this with all my bracelets It gives them a buttery texture.
