Lubricant compositions and methods of applying lubricant compositions are provided that overcome problems associated with over-lubrication and waste of lubricants in a variety of industrial settings. In various aspects, a lubricant composition is provided with one or more carriers, wherein the surface tensions of the lubricant and carrier are selected to provide precise lubrication of a surface with the lubricant effectively wetting the surface. In various aspects, a lubricant composition is provided with one or more carriers, wherein the boiling points of the lubricant and carrier are selected to provide precise lubrication with easy removal of the carrier and wetting of the lubricant on the surface. In various aspects, methods of applying a precise amount of lubricant to a surface are provided to avoid waste of lubricant in various industrial settings. |
