I have read here, that this version of rtd is a later designed formula, as i need to drill 1/4" ss on an aquaponics tank, do the warnings still apply?

Make Metal Machining Easy
A perfect addition to my recent purchase of a pillar drill.RTD Compound allows easier cutting of materials and helps to extend tool life, it also has a slight cooling effect. You can see the difference it makes when applied to a blunt drill, the drill travels through the material with ease compared to without the compound.This is also the new design formula that is chlorine free, I find it causes little to no skin irritation compared to the old formula and does not smell terrible once it has heated up.

essential for the workshop
What can you say about Rocol? It's essential as far has I'm concerned for drilling and tapping harder materials. With stainless steel it makes the difference between burning out the drill bit or making a neat hole. I sometimes use it for turning and milling as well. It lasts well, I am on only my third tin in 50 years so I'm not complaining!
