Rust Prevention on Machinery & Tools - yet again ....

[Xanthorrhoeas]

Thank you very much for this. My workshop is quite close to the water here in Brisbane so corrosion is a constant problem. I have been using either blocks of paraffin wax rubbed on then spread and evened with a green scourer. That is pretty good for less-used gear but time consuming. The other product that works for me is a Felder/Hammer spray called Super Gleit. That product is said to not affect timber finishes and it helps timber to slide in the surfaces but is about $40 or so for a 500 ml spray bottle.
I will get some of the 3-36 and compare it.

Has anybody tried Penetrol as rust prevention on a cast iron table top. I tried it on at the corner of my table saw, waited for it dry and then rubbed off the excess. Seems OK but not sure if it will work or not.
