[GreenKeys] oil for heavy metal?

[Richard Knoppow]

    Which 3 in 1? There are two commonly sold, the red can is the 
traditional semi-penetrating oil but the Blue can stuff is about 
20 weight machine oil of good quality. I don't know what is 
recommended for Teletype machines or where since I suspect they 
require more than one kind of oil.
