I was taught equal portions of Vaseline, pure fine talc (available from =
pharmacists), and lanolin (also available from pharmacists).  This makes =
for a very thick mixture once it cools. It has no smell at all - I =
haven't used baby powder as some have suggested.

Be careful how you heat the Vaseline - if it gets too hot it will catch =
fire! Just warm it in the double-boiler setup until it is liquefied, =
then mix in the lanolin, and finally the talc.  Also, be careful not to =
breathe the talc dust. Having that mineral in your lungs isn't such a =
good idea.

Substituting part Teflon powder for part of the talc sounds like a good =
idea. I have not needed to make VJ for many years, but when I do I'll =
try that.
