As above, what’s best to mix with raddle powder? Used olive oil last year and looking at the tups a week later I was really questioning whether I had done it at all, not a trace left.

Engine oil or semi fluid grease… prefer a harness personally though don’t have too worry about it coming off

Got harnesses too but struggling to get cold weather crayons. Used all weather last year and the marks didn’t last very long at all
Didn’t even know there was different crayons 😂 I just use mate mark crayons what Evers on the shelf

+1 for grease. But prefer the harness and crayons. Started of with flexmark and they didn't last so back to nettex all weather crayons.
