I have been using olive oil, sparingly.
Then dry with hand dryer. Store in a dry place or

  due to problems with my printer and the cost of transparencies inkjet
transparences hard on me.
  What due you use for your oiled paper ( paper and oil ) ??? One person on
the list said they used a liquied parffin wax.
  I did get some good negs using linseed oil but they go bad in a few dayes.
