CRL Professional Glass Cutter Oil - 4 Ounce

It does what it's supposed to do, great product and sure does make the job of cutting glass easier! Description, accessories, photograph, website presentation, and what arrived are the same-size, shape, color, and it matched my expectations. The product(s) arrived on time, as described by seller & manufacturer, it was shipped without issue, arrived within prescribed estimates, the packaging was undamaged, and the product itself was unmolested and made with quality materials.

Doesn't dry out quickly nor is so oily that it creates a mess. Glass wheel is well lubricated when using this product. Because only a couple of drops are necessary to cut a few long cuts, this item will last a very long time. The superior quality of oil makes this product an excellent choice not only for cutting glass but it keeps all my small tools well lubricated without the mess.

Excellent for using diamond hole saw to cut through glass. I use plumber's putty to make a ring around the drill site. I pour in a fair bit of oil. This works much better than dripping the oil on the saw or the glass.

First - what is cutter oil? Cutter oil is basically mineral oil. It may have some additives to moderate the viscosity, but it's essentially mineral oil. So, do you need it? Yes. Sort of. You should use lubricant with your cutter when scoring glass. You'll get more consistent results and prolong the life of your cutter. But there are a whole range of petroleum distillate products that are suitable lubricants, such as sewing machine oil, lamp oil, baby oil, even kerosene! Finally, what about this particular product? The primary issue is lubrication, but after that it's viscosity. See, you want a product that is thin enough to flow freely in use, but thick enough that it doesn't just leak all over the place. Rather than use trial and error to figure out which "light oil" will do that, spend a few extra bucks and buy this.

Foil sticks to glass well. Solder sticks to tape well. However, when touching up and resoldering areas, the tape is easily scratched off leaving a foil/glue mess that ruins the solder bead. Maybe beginning operator error..? It's something I paid attention to, not rubbing foil, and have had much success since observation. Good tape at fair price.

The product itself works great. Really makes cutting holes in bottles much easier. My issue/complaint is the cap on the bottle was not tight and there are no seals so I only got about 1/2 of bottle. The other 1/2 was all in the box and on the cutting tools packaged with it. Bummer. Full price and 1/2 the product from no seal and poor handling.

We purchased this with a bottle glass cutter. So for THIS product, it receives a 5 star rating. It was easy to use and a necessity. However, on a side note, we returned the glass cutter (it was junk) and had a heck of a time trying to return this oil. Amazon said this oil wasn't eligible for return, so they ended up crediting us and we disposed of this oil.

You need this stuff if you want to use the glass drills. The oil keeps the glass cool and lubricates the drills to keep the bottles from breaking during the drilling process... Vendor was fast and has good quality product.
