    One big thing to be aware of is soluble oils can be pretty specific for their applications, and I'm guessing that whatever you have isn't suited for brass (some suppliers classify it as yellow metal).

    I use Castrol Cooledge BI, mainly because I got most of a 20L container cheaply. I've not needed to use it on brass, but it says it's suitable in the datasheet.
