Not all lube are suitable (They wont dissolve, flash point could be an issue), castor, Klotz are the know brands, get in touch with Mr Ethiraj of Mayura Chem, he makes Indian Klotz

The commonly available lubricants are mineral oil based and will NOT blend with methanol. Only glycol based synthetics work with methanol.

As Gusty has said, try Mayura. I believe their stuff is pretty good.

Yup try Mayura lube....lot of people using it...

Original Klotz is pretty expensive. (Rs 1250 for 900ml or even more)
