That's a good question. Fluid Film is lanolin-based, Krown says theirs is petroleum based.

There's probably some other important bits, but I'm guessing it's a long-chain hydrocarbon of some sort with a volatile solvent-based means of getting the stuff in small places. Hand lotion v. petroleum jelly or paraffin wax??
Although Fluid Film's SDS shows a big percentage of paraffinic petroleum. So much for figuring out marketing claims.
