I can't imagine why anyone would want to spray atomized oil indoors,
what happens to all the over spray... all my spray paint cans warn to
spray outdoors and to wear a respirator. When oiling a fry pan as
soon as it gets hot the little bit of oil you poured in spreads out
thinly pretty much all on its own... haven't any of yoose so-called
cooks/kooks ever noticed that as cooking fat heats it loses viscosity
so spreads all on its own, no different from warming up your
automobile engine to get the engine oil flowing into all the nooks,
crannies, and cleavages... a cleavage is just a classier crevice... I
prefer a crevasse.
