I need to get a product made by Millers Oils 'Millway 100' slideway oil, to use in my DT Swiss forks. I don't want to buy a big drum! All I need is a 1Litre bottle, but it's proving difficult...
Ask them for a sample? Might be enough for requirements?
Tried that, but no joy!!! Thanks for the suggestion...
I do also know that they sell it in 1Litre bottles, but it's finding someone that stocks it (they have the usual min.order quantity)...
Buy the massive drum and sell by the litre on here?
itis normally used for machine tool slideways..
Miller normally do 1l in all their industrial oils you can get Millway 68 (thinner) from :

bound to be other oil manufacturer equiv.. so try an engineering supplier
or find your local machine shop and ask to buy some from them
Do you really need to use it?
Just like fox suspension oil, alternatives (which fox just rebrand) are available.
this is the problem with manufactures using an industrial oil... in its normally application people are quite used to buying 25-100litres..
I know I [i]could[/i] use alternatives, however, I just want to try and use the right stuff! I can't get what DT recomend (Motorex Supergliss 100K) in this country, so I want to go for the exact equivalent in terms of viscosity etc (and I know Pace are using Millers as well!).
I just want to ensure longlife for the forks, and I'm sure x,y,z similar oils will be fine, but.......
Demon tweeks should be able to sort you out

Really?
these oils (Millway, Supergliss) are not automotive but industrial - used for lathe/mill slideways? Also I found for motorsport stuff Demon Tweeks expensive
anyhow as above you can def get the thinner Millway 68 in 1litre tubs
you might be able to get a small sample from Morris oils of their Astra 100 - email them.
