There was just a thread about this with several formulas. Do a search so the guys don't have to write it all over again.

I've heard Pam cooking spray works. But, I use Imperial Sizing Wax. One tub will last a looooonnnnggg time!

Good luck.

The home made stuff is cheap and works great. I use 1oz liquid lanolin to i can of "Heat" gas line antifreeze the red bottle. It will lube a ton of cases. Tumbles off in 20min.

A can of Kiwi mink oil (which is really a paste) will last you literally for years. I have been using the same can for thousands and thousands of rounds and have not found anything better-ever! A close second would be Imperial and even though I have other lubes ever since I started using mink oil everything else gathers dust.

Kiwi Mink.....jeeeeeez, had some of that once for my shoe leather, 30 years or so ago. Great suggestion, thanks.

Imperial does work well. For a year or so now, I've used mostly an aerosol spray product called Fluid Flim. Basically it is a lanolin based lub product. Can says no solvents in it, but rep of product emailed me once that it did have some petrolemm product in it. I just spray it on a lub pad to lub my cases. Discovered it on another gunsite when someone posted how great it was for lubing a 22 semi-auto rifle action. One day I was getting ready to resize some brass and had a dried out case lub pad on my reloading bench that someone had given me. Next to it was my can of Fluid Flim that I knew to be lanolin based. What the heck, sprayed some on the lub pad and tried it. Stuff works great. Seldom use my Imperial resizing wax anymore.

Just go to the kitchen and rob a little of the wife's Crisco.
I have used it for about 50 years.

We use Pam cooking spray on outside and RCBS Lube in every 5th case neck.

I tried the pam years ago, it got really sticky after a while.
