In trying to deal a death blow to Japanese Knotweed in the garden, i have bought an old paraffin blow torch. The leather washer of the pump is very dried out and no longer a good seal. To moisten it, to expand the piston leather; am i better using paraffin or dubbin or would it be kinder to the leather to use a vegetable oil like walnut oil? Thanks.
