My workshop is in the garage so not able to control humidity.

I have been told that paste wax does not work.


I don't know where you heard that paste wax doesn't work.


Paste wax works, but sucks compared to Bostik GlideCote (TopCote). I've
use both and like most things, the product specifically designed for the
task works best, in this case, way best.

This stuff not only inhibits rust, but makes all your tool tops slick as
wet ice. This makes it a safety factor as well as a rust inhibitor.
Lasts a long time as well, longer than past wax and easy to use. I even
use it on all my vice/clamp threads as it makes them spin freely and no
rust.
