You will find that both Dolmar synthetic and Bailey's synthetic are both bottled by Spectrum.

But that isn't saying they are the same oil? likely but not necessarily . . .

They do Lawnboy too.

There's a surplus store here in town and at one time they had a load of Spectrum bar oil. It had the most tackifier of any bar oil I ever used.

I'm sure it's good oil. I've just had good luck with what I've been running in bike oils so I'll stick with them. I just like to know what others are running.

The guys at the model airplane flying field back behind cut4fun's house mostly use Red Line oil.

I found that walmart brand bar oil makes a good winter use. Thin
