Kathleen,
The original compound came in three temperature ranges. O.C.T. Roman
numeral( l) for 0 to -15 degrees, , O.C.T.( II ) for -15 to -30, and
O.C.T.( III ) for -30 to -60. Today you have only one choice. I think
"O.C.T." Compound was a copyright name at one time and competitors now
refer to "freezing compound" for their products.

Optimal Cutting Temperature. Never did make sense to me.
