Oil bath

"Thank the maker! This oil bath is going to feel so good. I've got such a bad case of dust contamination, I can barely move!"

- C-3PO

An oil bath was a means of removing accumulated grime, such as dust, from a droid.

During the Clone Wars, Droid Spa, a maintenance spa business on Coruscant, offered an automated oil bath as part of their regular service.

After traveling through the desert of Tatooine and being captured by Jawa scavengers, the protocol droid C-3PO was purchased by Owen Lars, who turned the droid over to the care of Luke Skywalker. Skywalker, noticing the heavy dust contamination on C-3PO, gave him an oil bath, which delighted him.
