Hi John
 
What kind of vegetable oil you use ? Industrial , I mean the one used
in paints (linseed oil) or food oil (sunflower)?
 
I know that linseed oil in time get dry , but food oil get rotten.
 
(I am not the one who take decisions  in apiary , but I think is better
to ask before proposing to test something new (here))
