    A friend of mine raved about this stuff and he ordered 5 cases, (6 gallons to a case). So what the heck I bought two cases and it is stringy just like snot and appears to be a real good oil, very clear and light colored.

    Anybody used this stuff?

    DESCRIPTION: SERVICE PRO® Bar and Chain Oil is a premium lubricant designed especially for the lubrication of bar and chains on chain saws, and all types of link chains that require lubrication, including motorcycles and bicycles, as well as farm and industrial uses.
    SERVICE PRO® Bar and Chain Oil is formulated with highly refined base stocks and an additive package to assure excellent performance as a chain saw bar and chain lubricant. A special tackifier is added to the oil, which promotes good adhesion to moving parts and minimizes oil throw off. These oils are designed to prevent rusting and reduce wear and link breakage thus extending bar and chain life. Penetration into rivet holes and the bat channel is assured. Down-time and cutting interruptions are minimized.
    • Extends bar, chain and sprocket life • Reduced throw off • Reduces heat build-up • Excellent rust and corrosion protection • Different viscosity weights for various ambient temperatures

    This Service Pro was not sold in a store, a friend direct ordered from a distributor. Price was decent @ $7/gallon.

    Essence is the best oil I have come across up till now, IMHO Poulon green jug is good too but this may be better.
