Default Anniversary gift from SHMBO

My lovely wife just came in and asked to take me to town so we can pickup a
new Grizzly G0444Z contractors table saw. What a great surprise for me!
Now I can finally move up from the Craftsman bench saw I've been trying to
use (soon FS in the paper). I'm definately only a hobiest woodworker so a
cabinet model was out of the question.

In exchange, I've been told NOT to mention tools, wood, projects, or
anything else until January - so I'm mentioning it here. What is
recommended to clean the shipping grease from the cast top? The last thing
I want to do is mess up the iron by using the wrong cleaner before I cut my
first board. I'm also trying to decide between TopCoat or Paste Wax to
protect the top after it's cleaned. I haven't seen wax at the local grocery
store and may check at Ace. Otherwise it's another trip to town and
Woodcraft (or mail order from any number of sources).

TIA
