If trying to keep a somewhat decent shop and not making a mess, i thought I should look into the stick-type lubricants instead of cutting fluids. So, has anyone ever used any of the following when

The paraffin wax that I use, is a product called Gulfwax, a household paraffin wax. I used it because it was my wife had it in the pantry and it is in convenient blocks. At normal room temperature, it
