Quality spray wax on your iron tops?

[Craig Richmond]

I have several cast iron tops and have been using the Johnson Past wax, but I would like to find a spray wax for quick wipe downs. Is anyone is using a spray wax either a high grade auto wax or something else?

Bostik glide coat., was called top coat until recently. Works great.

Avoid the automotive waxes. They contain silicon whoch could contaminate your finish. I don't know if automotive spray waxes contain it but the auto paste waxes do.

I use T9 and paste wax

I use T9 and paste wax

+1 on the T9 Boeshield and Paste wax. Works great.

Last week I used my table saw top to glue up large top for a coffee table build. (bad idea I know, but my make shift bench was not flat enough)

The glued up top was too big for me to flip so I let it dry overnight without scraping the glue from the other side.
When I took the clamps off the next day, I was happy to find all the dried glue cast iron top could be flicked with my finger without marring of the surface.

Paste wax. The trick is to slather it on real good, then melt it in with a heat gun or hair dryer.
Then buff it up.

Thanks. I thought there was something about the auto wax I was missing. I will look for the T9.

CRC 3.36 It did best in the FWW test, and mine too. I have a table saw left in an old house that we work on periodically, and rust was always an issue on it, until I finally decided to get the stuff in the FWW test. Now it can go many months with zero rust.

I'll second the CRC 3.36. I just started using it several months back and it has been great. Easy to use and cheap.

For rust protection or friction reduction?

I like it too, but I top it off with Johnson's paste wax in between treatments about twice a year.

[Craig Richmond]

Protection first and reduction second. I have two tops with stains and like that T9 can remove rust stains. What I really want is a fast wax I can spray on and wipe off between deep cleanings.
