I have one of those Harbor Freight parts tumblers and I have been wondering what kind of lubricant I can use for parts. One guy I know that runs a machine shop said that he used water and a little bit of Simple Green. I tried that and it stopped burning up my aluminum parts which were great, but it is also amazing at making steel parts rust overnight.
I was thinking of putting something like 3-in-1 oil in the tub and forgetting the water.
