Default rust-proofing the ways

I spray everything with WD-40 - I buy it by the gallon can and put it in a
spray bottle and squirt to all over everything almost every day - it works
for me on my Stubby

What do most folks use to keep the ways from rusting, as well as the
headstock and tailstock sliding smoothly? I've tried grease and other
petroleum-based lubes (liquids), but they all foul with shaving dust
immediately, making a mess to clean up. Am I being overly critical, or is
there something that works well without collecting shavings?
