Everybody does it a bit differently, but this is what I do. Graphite doesn’t burn, which makes it live a decent life on a stove door and hinges. Some like powder, I can’t get the powder where I want it. But a quick shot of spray has oil as a carrier to move the graphite where it needs to be. And then the oil evaporates on its own or with the heat of the first fire.

I think I picked this up at Lowe’s a decade ago.

And the best thing is…

It says that since I used their product I can, “Work it like a pro!”

So I got that going for me!

Only if you shake it first, it says.
So no cameras, when you use it, I suggest 😋
