The History of Ballistol
In the early years of the twentieth centaury, Friedrich Wilhelm Klever began producing oils and greases. Thus began the story of the world's first multi purpose, bio degradable oil.
The oil was first produced using coal and a coal mine was purchased to ensure continuity of supply of the raw material.
The Imperial German Army were looking for an "All round oil" to enable soldiers to care for their rifle barrels and wood stocks and leather straps all from one bottle, they also asked if the oil could be used to treat minor cuts, abrasions, and sores.
By 1904 Friedrich's son, Dr. Helmut Klever, had developed the special oil required by the German Army and he called this oil Ballistol, the derivation of the name is a combination of the word ballistic and the Latin for oil 'oleum'. A year later the Army had completed full tests on the new wonder oil and endorsed it's qualities by specifying its use fro 1905 onwards.
Within ten years of this Ballistol was in use in many European countries by those groups of people who still use it today including; hunters, sailors, motorists, fishermen and many more

BALLISTOL is widely used in the precision gauge and tool industry and in the production of scales and other precision instruments. BALLISTOL provides a protective alkaline film on the surface of metals, neutralises hand sweat and other acid corrosive residues so that the surface is protected of corrosion. Due to its low surface tension, it is capable of creeping into the tiniest cracks and fissures of metal surfaces. It cleans and makes silver and brass shiny. Brilliant for the upkeep of tools and instruments in the field of precision mechanics.

Leather
BALLISTOL effectively protects leather against getting hard and dry, against water, insects and fungi. Residues of tannic acid in leather will be neutralised. Dry leather softens and gets elastic again with a dull shine. Bright leather can get darker. The typically smell of BALLISTOL will evaporate quickly. There will be no greasy film an the leather.
