Has anyone ever tried Penetrol? It is a paint additive for oil based paints and it claims to be an effective rust preventer.
I haven't tried it. An old woodworker I once new swore by the use of paraffin mixed into kerosene. You heat up some kerosene in a pan and dissolve paraffin wax into the kerosene. Paint the mixture onto machined surfaces. The kerosene dries out slowly and leaves a super thin layer of wax on the surface. I haven't tried that either. :-) Dave On 12/30/2010 12:45 PM, Eric Keller wrote: > On Thu, Dec 30, 2010 at 12:36 PM, Yann Jautard<brico...@free.fr> wrote: > >> I'm not sure what remains after drying WD40 is oil, because it doesn't look >> greasy.
