When I got the saw I was waffling between Topcoat and Boeshield (after reading

"heavy treatment" instructions (since have slacked off toward a thinner coat).
It's done its job in keeping the top rust free (though there are some marks on
it) but it's certainly not as "slick" as the bare cast iron.


Topcote is slick as can be, far slicker than bare cast iron, slicker
than waxed iron. When I bought it I was waffling too, but the tool
store I bought it from only had TopCote. After this thread, it seems
they made the right decision for me...
