Work Top Rust?

Just curious what some of you guys use to treat/clean the surface of your tables on your tools such as your band saws, drum sanders and drill presses to keep them from beginning to rust? Thanks for any help.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Larry, when I am shutting down, or putting away tools like the table saw, lathe, etc for a while, I clean them, then apply a coat of Butchers wax, then just lightly buff... when ready to use again, clean rag, and finish buff off the wax... no rust, and nice and clean.

I use silicone spray on my work surfaces if I am activly working the cave. When shutting down for a longer period, I use butchers also. The bowling alley stuff. Works great on fishin stuff as CS stated.

Either one, both are same formula, bowling alley is clear, boston polish is amber, that's the only difference. Boston polish on fine furniture =
