I wonder if a vinyl floor wax would work?


Why fool with success? Paste wax works. Another product that works
is Collinite #845 Insulator wax. It is a high carnabu wax.

Exactly, why fool with success. Bostik TopCote works great and is
designed for exactly this purpose. Lasts a long time, easy to apply
and slick as all get out.

Spend a couple of bucks and be done with it.


That's what I tell people every time the subject of removing rust from
table saw top comes up. I say, "Just use Boeshield RustFree and be done
with it."

But there are always people who want to put more work into it. There
are always those who say you need WD-40 and steel wool and to scrub and
reapply, etc, ad nauseam.
Maybe, they get more satisfaction out of the scrubbing and elbow grease,
but I'd rather use the saw, not clean it.




I think we are talking about "rust prevention" not rust removal.

I think you might be the first advising how to remove. ;~)
