Would it be a good idea to use oil?
In place of the tape, I use a small amount of vegetable oil.

Hello Merry,
Not sure what you are referring to, have you been watching a Project? If so you can look it up under Projects at top of Home page. Best of luck!
Oil will remove adhesive so if you are trying to clean where tape was previously placed, that's a great idea. I use it for that purpose often.
I’m so curious! What is this tip for?
What are you hoping to do?
Merry could you please be a little more specific in your question? I am not sure what you are asking.
Hi Merry, what are you working on?
Can you tell us what you are using the oil on?
Hi Merry, It sounds like maybe you had a question about a specific post you were looking at. If you are able to find the post again you can ask the question directly on the post so that the author can provide you with the best answer. I hope that helps!
