Hello Michael -
yes it is correct that Forest Oils do supply Penrite and when I last visited
there were many Penrite containers in their yard awaiting filling.? However when
I queried the possibility of buying?Penrite Oil direct from them the chap was a
little cagey about it and did say that the formulation of Penrite was
confidential and they wouldn't supply direct, which I accept.? I have spoken to
Frank on the subject and my view is that if you require Penrite specifically you
must bite the bullet and pay their premium price.? As you may have seen in the
latest Sphinx I am an advocate of their oil for the Whitley rear axle.? Regards
- John

Dear Frank

Can you please supply any more info re Forest Oils? I've never heard of them,
nor does a quick search reveal anything. I've been pleased with Penrite goods,
but if Forest Oils are their supplier, then this is worthwhile information. Is
the "Red Solid Oil" like (or same as) semi-fluid grease? If we can obtain spec
& prices of Forest Oils products, then this could very useful!

best regards,
Michael
