Does he soak them for any amount of time or simply rub the lanolin oil on the strings? The oil should just be applied to the finger tips and then you run your fingertips with the string between along the length of the string. Just use a small amount and try to apply it evenly along the length. This is especially effective to take the bright edge of sound that brand new strings (Pyramids) have.
