Morlock 1,718 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 We know some iron meteorites are prone to rusting. Has anyone tried Renaissance Wax on them? The British Museum uses it on various iron artifacts to prevent rust. Seems logical if you could keep oxygen from the surface, it should inhibit rusting. I've tried everything but wax.

jimmychristian 9 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 My friend puts it on his rifles for hunting trips. He's said rain water just beads right up and falls off. So it does protect against moisture and I think I used it before on my table saw and was happy but I guess I would be curious if there's any chemical in it that you wouldn't want on you irons.
