but he's not wrong! mineral oil is ideal to be used.

What i am more worried about is that 1) somehow the solution was altered and now has salt content (like if you dip your key chain in peroxide)

2) it was left wet over the weekend (unlikely to turn like that, but not ruling it out)
mineral oil is great

but it was baby oil that was used. two very different oils.

and neither of them mix with water.

Baby oil is mineral oil with fragrance added. Mineral oil is used to store reactive metals.

Just another thought that could cause your rust issue......

What if the machine had some sort of an electrical ground buildup that there might be a galvanic type reaction with your tools/burs?

A switch to a milling fluid could halter or lessen it(assuming they are less conductive that H2O)

Not every oil is acid free thats why bicycle oils for example are special because off the iron bicycle chain
