[Les Cork]

Hi have you seen this http://www.oregonchain.be/arborol/video/video.htm

[desired_affect]

is it available in the uk???

[Ian C]

Be interesting to see it, am sure there has been threads on here before about simular sort of stuff, am sure some guys said it went crappy after a while and was useless but this might be different.

You can send off for a free trial sample.

[desired_affect]

well if it sorta goes off in a week or goes crap and stops doing wot its supposed to then i duno if i would wana put in any of my saws.

[Billy]

probably only goes off when mixed? Who think all those opinions are for real "i must admit with arboroil all my worries are gone"

i've used this stuff and didn't rate it. it's just weird. i'm not convinced it was any better than normal bio oil and it freezes. and it's just weird.

Oregon were giving away samples at the APF last year.

 

I've just tried them out and it seems ok but haven't put enough through the saw, MS260, to see if chain wear and stretch differs from standard oil.

 

Now trying out veg oil to see what that's like.

[Mesterh]

Can you buy the stuff in the UK?

 

I cant see it for sale anywhere

 

If so what are the costs involved?

You dont say... well I never...

That is a seriousley patronising video, and it looks like a load of rubbish to me.

If you want to use bio oil, start buying your chain oil from asda or tescos, normal basic veg oil... it's the core ingredient in all bio oils anyway so why would you pay a fortune just because it says Stihl or Oregon on the drum?

 

I dont care what anyone says about the bio oils, they are a f****ng rip off!!
