What..apply oil?
Posted by: kayamedic on Dec-01-12 8:33 PM (EST)

many of us former solotrippers are back online at canoetripping.net. Mike is there too.

But the archival stuff on solotripping is hard to find.

Oh yes oil. Paul of Colden Canoe taught me to apply oil and work it in with a Dobie pad. Often. Seems the heat helps penetration a little.
