Consider:
1) Penetrol


Penetrol sounds good, but it seems to be listed as a paint additive,
not
as a protective finish in its own right. Have they changed it, or is
this the same stuff?


I could not say. I bought mine about a year and a half ago. I got the hint
from a metal sculpture discussion group where they seemed to like it. I have
been using it but do not have a track record over years to show how good it
is long-term.


Does that can say anything more specific than "Penetrol"? The only
stuff Flood sells now is listed as "Oil-Based Paint Additive". I found a
place in Australia that lists a version specifically for protective
metal, but it apparently leaves a brown finish, and the US web site makes
no mention of it.

Thanks!
