    Was that a soy sauce marinade, or a Bundy based one?

    Has anyone ever used Boeshield T-9?

    Boeshield T-9® | Corrosion Protection and Waterproof Lubrication

    Interesting quote from the Wood Magazine article on "Rust Busters".

    Blu_Rock, at the risk of creating a monster, but in the interests of testing other methods used, this very recent thread had a bunch of different methods offered. Most of them cheap and cheerful. The one that I'd be most interested for inclusion is Camellia Oil, followed by Foodsafe + Oil of Clove.

    the heat exchanger been piped to the exhaust. the funny thing is i didn't understand the reference to sauces of pdw.

    Grahame,
    your link to a gun website reminded me of the method I use to control moisture in my gun safe. I use one of these to raise the temp inside slightly and therefore (hopefully) reduce the chance of condensation buildup. It seems to work, although I've never done any proper comparisons. These things are designed to reduce corrosion inside electrical equipment cabinets. They also come in low voltage versions and they are cheap!:

    Buy Cabinet / Enclosure Heaters Heater,enclosure,IP32,30mm fan,8W/110-250Vac/dc Stego Elektrotechnik 01602.0-00 online from RS for next day delivery.

    I screwed it to a small heatsink to help with conduction. You can also get fan-forced versions. This might be a good solution for those of you who have big problems with rust on expensive tools. Maybe one or more could be mounted inside a tool cupboard.

    Chris

    FenceFurniture, thanks for the link to that thread, an interesting inclusion for another test sometime.

    jack620, Boeshield T-9 looks very promising, I will keep an eye out for it.

    Nothing to do with the test but... I have a constant battle with corrosion. I have taken to wiping bright surfaces with Timken wheel bearing grease because it provides better protection than the Vactra way oil and the DTE I use to lube the machines, it's visible because it's red and it's easy to clean off. It's also cheap as chips. And it also smells better than a sheep.
