Dipstick coating (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oil

'dipstick coating' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for oil that I've seen before include "Anoint" , "Slippery liquid" , "Liquid lubricant" , "Greasy liquid" , "painting" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Universal.
