You are in a bubble if you're writing this crap, and concerned about virgin peanut oil to season some steel pipe Flash Gordon.

Tell Dr. Zarkoff to turn the space traveler around and come back down to earth.

Either you been chewing on that pipe after the oiling it, or you got you lips locked around the tail pipe.


Breath real deep.

What about the idiot in front of you in his diesel powered vanagon converted it to run on Mickey D's used up fry oil, and you have an allergy to that.?

Don't get outa bed, or break out of your bacteria friendly cacoon son.

Stay locked up in your bubble.

It could be an extract from cow dung--

Who cares?

You're not supposed to be huffing the oil as it's being applied.
It has one purpose here, to slow down the pipes from rusting, it isn't supposed or intended to be consumed by dog or man.

You're way out in left field too.

The pipes won't know the difference.

Get a job.

Excuse me Jack LaLaine.

Those pipes won't know if that oil is extra virgin, or all used up.

How you manage to drag these posts into a outer galactic experience is totally beyond me.

Whatever you're doing besides the peanuts isn't any good for you.

The implication that our food grade oils are being rampantly adulterated to the degree one should be concerned is ludicrous. I'm not saying the system is perfect, but every food company selling in the US today is completely aware of peanut allergies and other food issues, and that they are culpable legally for purity and for contaminants. They maintain regular testing not just for fun, but to prevent lawsuits. I call BS. I know the owner of one of the largest sugar hauling businesses in the US and they maintain a level of security with their trucks to maintain the integrity of the food supply and are actually answerable to Homeland Security as well as their stockholders.

To toss out that our food grade oils are a cause for concern is not only untrue and inaccurate, but a specious concern in a thread where the oil is being brushed onto rusty exhaust. This thread continues to take odd turns, but at least its entertaining!!

Yes. Most of the thread is trying to combat the rust that had long started, or the cancer that attacks from outside in from the road salt.

For those in more hospitable locales, the biggest exhaust/muffler killer is driving short distance.

Killing them softly...

Only a fool to assume the peanut oil he bought is indeed peanut oil. Peanut oil is as high up on the list as extra virgin olive oil in the likelihood of being adulterated. I no longer buy peanut oil. Same goes with pure cold pressed rapeseed, grape seed, and mustard oil.

Only a fool would not use peanut oil.


Tried, tested, and an enjoyed application process.

It's Tinker Toy easy.

Obviously too simple for some.

Only a fool would use peanut oil, messy drips not for me, no way.

The smart way to season our Vanagon exhaust is peanut butter, i dont know why no one thought of this before. No drips, application is easy with a butter knife.

A gator tough seasoning using extra chunky peanut butter would be suitable for the Syncro Vanagons, extra tough for off roading. Use creamy peanut butter for the around town seasoning look.

Of course this use of peanut butter may lead to a big debate, Skippy or Jiff??????

Let me calculate this on my BR-549;

Very few.
Also it is a really bad move to position one self directly under the area one is working on, for fear of digesting mass doses of crud & rust.

If one lacks common sense, a high iron diet it is--especially in the eyes.

Goggles. / protective eye gear would prohibit the eye pain.
More common sense.

Oh--& oiling twice a year is not a tedious task.
Much easier than installing new pipes.

"Ya know how many folks here will be running out to find pipes made outa this stuff? "

Quite possibly I can calculate this on my HP12C:

(the number of people willing to get peanut oil in a bucket, take a paintbrush, and slide under their van and lay on their back brushing grit into their eyes 4X a year) - (the square root of 1).
