Well, Dave - he was treated so rudely and, IMHO, unfairly by some members of
this group that he stopped posting. Since then, BTW, I have had occasion to
purchase SlipIt and it's really a great product for certain applications.
Don't know about a rust preventative though, I use Boeshield m'self.

I also remember that Carlo from Jesada used to post quite a bit and even
gave away a few 1/2" bits and he never got the treatment that the fellow
from SlipIt got.

Ah, those were the days - also very few trolls IIRC.

Of course, I also remember using the Internet before there was anything
called the World Wide Web. Lynx, Pine, Gopher and Telnet were the buzzwords
then.

To remove rust try WD-40.

WD-40 by itself won't do much, but some elbow grease with it and a
Scotch-brite pad certainly will.
Also Boeshield is reported to be very effective. I haven't used it, so
I can't testify directly.

You know, in days past we would have had the SlipIt guy come in with
his perpetual posts. Whatever happened to that guy anyway?
