I think 600 is perfect for hard(black or translucent) arks. I've yet to try wd-40 or rem oil but I'm sure it'll be soon. I've heard great things about gun oil from old timer, not rem oil, but probably closer to old 3 in 1 or something. I'd guess it's essentially setting machine oil but I'm not sure. Hopefully someone either reaffirms or rebukes what I've said.I had knocked this Törnblom into the sink a few days ago and my new synth progression made short work of the small chips. I think I found a place for my ILR; after experimenting this weekend, a few passes on it after the Fuji 8k seems to set things up nicely for the ark. I also surfaced the ark with 600 w/d and that, combined with WD40, seems like a sweet spot. Best HHT I've gotten to date.
