I've seen baby oil being used on a layout at an exhibition in England next to a friend's where he had his prize winning scratch built O-scale Great Western broad gauge locomotives and cars running, and it left a deposit on his beautiful paint jobs and on the track leading to bad running.
I've never seen smoke units that look like the real thing and since a lung problem that left me with breathing difficulties a few years ago I avoid them like the plague.

The stuff ROCKS! I would not use anything else. Even in the old PW with pill type heaters the stuff billows. Better than anything else I've tried.
I'm a sucker for Bayberry and Christmas Pine in December.
Do not use mineral oils. Use a low-burn vegetable oil.
