Oil Sprayer for UTV for dust control?

[mikester]

Your analogy would be super awesome if people drank oil...

However nobody does, so where does that leave your analogy?

Would you be willing to get an eye dropper and put a single drop of used motor oil in your glass every time you drink something? Its such a small amount you wont even notice it.

I'm having a hard time seeing where this has anything to do with me putting asphalt, sorry, an oil'd aggregate driveway in.

Unless they live next door to you.

and if they did drink oil, it would affect you how?

Sign in a restaurant: "Coffee Rules---cup .75; half morning $2; all morning $2.50; all day $3. For $3.5 you are allowed to leave for lunch and return."

Just a change of subject. Remember the quote about being careful about who you argue with, 'cause people watching may not be able to tell the difference?

It's almost like they don't understand semantics...

I bet they would eat a hot dog with no concerns, but call it a nitrogen based meat scrap in a casing and they get all hoity toity and balk at such a thing. Never knowing it's the same **** thing. I swear, people are regressing as a species.

Well if the original poster is coming back occasionally to read the posts on this thread,
a spinner set will do a nice job of spreading that used fryer oil.
When I wash out and clean up and oil the apron chain on my sander in the spring time what oil gets to the spinner is spread nicely.

Who are they?

Who are they?

That's a question you will have to conclude on your own. For obvious reasons...

So you know, that chip seal "oil" and tar, are not the same products that used motor oil is??

I do know that, but oil for chip seal is basically heavy crude, what the tree huggers howl about when a pipeline breaks.

Oil on an aggregate driveway is oil on the ground.
Some folks would consider that to be polluting the ground!

Used motor oil has a bunch of carcinogens in it and will wash down into the ground water. Its runs at normal temps we live in. What they chip-seal or make asphalt road with is stable unit at very high temps. So the cancer risk to animal life (that's us) is not the same.

Somebody needs explain this to the tree huggers.
They seem to get their panties in a wad whenever there is even a minor crude oil spill.
BTW: Crude oil is heated for pipeline transport, as well as for roadway application.

 

[HarryVanderpool]

Crude oil is heated for pipeline transport, as well as for roadway application.

And why do you suppose that is?
Used motor oil doesn't need heated to spread on the ground.
Could there possibly be a (gasp) difference?

I heard that used motor oil caused coronavirus(LOL)!

Too late for me, I grew up in an era that gravel roads & oiling for dust were the norm.

People back then had private wells got city water that came from a private well.

I am dying and nothing I do now can stop it.

Sorry.......Me too...

Correct!
There is a difference!
Used motor oil does not need to be heated, but crude oil does need to be heated, to make it flow...... like used motor oil.
Obviously, pipeline crude oil cannot possibly pollute the ground unless it is hot.
Pipeline oil is... cold?... Hot?

Oil in pipelines is hot, weather its crude or not, is not an accurate statement. In all the years I spent in the patch, I never once worked on a line that hot oil flowed in for any distance. But oil is different at every field around the world so my experience is quite limited so yes some is heated, to be move down lines. I'm not sure where, but I'm sure it it. Nearly all the wells I worked on heated it in treaters I worked on those da^&%m things. Oils used in asphalt or road repairs is a byproduct of there refining and not good for much anything else so I'd say road is a good place for it.. Hope that helps

The point being: Oil whatever type, when poured on the ground pollutes the ground.
Surely, some types are worse than others, but they ALL pollute the ground!

Can't be so, it's organic.
