What I've read is to use a furniture paste wax like Butchers. You
can get this at Home Depot in the paint section. Don't use a paste
wax that has a silicone in it like the car waxes.

I'm looking for a good paste wax to use on my cast-iron
table saw top. I found a thread from a couple years ago
that said that Johnson's paste wax was the best, but is
no longer manufactured. A specialty product called TopCote
works but is expensive.

I started to buy some Turtle Wax today but stopped because
the directions said to apply it with a wet rag (rust hazard).

Anybody have a recommendation for a good, readily
available wax for this purpose?
