Ron, I simply add a several coats of a good Car Wax to my Iron or Steel
tops. No rust and as smooth as glass.

Car wax ? bad idea. Your finishing attempts will be contaminated by
silicones, yea unto the seventh generation.


Andy-

not all car waxes have silicone. I think the trend in automotive
products is away from silicone. one advantage of automotive paste
waxes is that they seem (to me) to be formulated a bit harder than
furniture waxes.
