The correct choice is (a) True

Explanation: The given statement is true. The oil is applied by electrostatic precipitation or direct plate immersion. The quantity of oil (applied uniformly to both sides) is carefully controlled because an excessive oil film can cause de-wetting of enamels and printing inks, which are applied during subsequent container manufacture.
