Has anyone reading this cut Petoskey using mineral oil as a coolant? Soak it first in water? Just cut away? Don't do it?

I've cut it using Covington rockhound oil as a coolant and there were no problems. I just washed the slabs in dishwasher soap and put them in the sun to dry right after cutting and the oil came right out....Mel
