I'm looking for your sources for paste wax (for coating saw tables, lathe ways, etc.) and grease (for coating threads bearings, etc.).
The only thing I can think of for paste wax is auto stores, but much of that stuff has silicone in it (unless someone has a specific type they use themselves, like say, Turtle Wax?). I have a can of Valvoline's high-temp grease for wheel bearings and such, but I'm not sure if there's something better out there.
It took me a couple of hours to get the rust preventative off of the bandsaw table, and I'm currently breaking down my metal lathe to de-gunk it (Jet really lays it on thick!). Before I rebuild, I want to make sure it's properly re-gunked.
