Greg -
I live in Virginia - where it rains if you spit in the air. Light surface rust is a constant battle. I have almost always used cheap paper towels and CRC or Rustlick - the paper towel holds more oil in place and conforms to the parts plus it keeps the germs away. I store the important stuff in a somewhat sealed cabinet with a 25 watt light bulb that stays on from September until May - condensation is a huge issue in the spring and fall.
SO - I am very interested to know - Which oil did you find to be the best overall?????????? And I want specifics, darn it - - who, where and what!!!!!!!!
Thanks.
Scott
Consistency is a good thing....unless you're consistently an idiot.
