5.0 out of 5 stars great for cast iron tables, ways, and hand tools, and chainsaw chains
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } I used to use renaissance wax on my cast iron, but I always battled surface rust given a short amount of time.I have now changed my practice, and use this CRC 3-36 product now. For the first time, I spent a good amount of time with a green scrubbie and making sure as much could soak in and lift off any dirt or grime that had been there. I then left a film on the cast iron overnight, and wiped it the following morning.So far, I've used it on my bandsaw table and lathe bed ways, as well as on my hand planes, and it looks great. I used this recently when refurbishing antique stanley hand planes, and it worked great as a sanding lubricant as well as cleaner to help lift off rust and prevent future rust.After I finish using a tool now, I keep a towel with CRC 3-36 soaked in it, and I do a wipe down. I expect this to maintain the condition of my cast iron machinery and hand tools, as well as keep them smooth to reduce friction and sticking.I opted for the gallon for value, but I don't use it directly from the gallon bottle. I poured from the gallon into a spray bottle, and that is what I use directly.So far, I think it is a great product. If anything changes in my experience, I'll update this review!-------------2/14/21 Update. I'm just about out of my first gallon, which might seem quick, but I've found many additional uses for this product.I got into chainsaw milling and have an MS661 with a 32" bar, 36" bar, and 56" bar with my Alaskan Mill. In total, I have around 15 chains in the rotation plus the chains for my smaller saw. After each use of the chainsaw, I clean and store the chain with a coating of CRC 3-36. This has helped with keeping the chains and the bars in good condition and preventing corrosion.I will say that when I'm turning freshly cut red oak on the lathe, the moisture that is released when turning as well as from the chips that land on the lathe bed can corrode through the coating of CRC 3-36, so I still have to be quick about clearing chips and cleaning the lathe bed when I've finished the rough turning of the green wood bowl blank.All that to say, I have a second gallon now, and I plan on continuing to use this for as much as I can to prevent corrosion and lubricate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tool Lubricant
Was recommended this product from an online forum as an alternative to WD-40 or 3-n-1 as a tool lubricant; it is easy to apply to my tools like WD-40, and seems to last as long as 3-n-1. Keeps my hand tools lubricated and helps to prevent rust from forming as it's always super humid here in Florida.
5.0 out of 5 stars Salt Worthiness Will Be Tested Over Time
Purchased this for my salt water reels as an "after wash protector". Always used Corrosion X in the past 20 or so years but it is pricey and could not find it locally. Its price is also higher as everyone uses is and it is imported from Australia I believe.Anyway, did a little research and found someone who did a test on saltwater engine surface protectors and of the 6 or 8 they tested (including Corrosion X), this product came out retarding corrosion for a longer period than any of the others. Corrosion developed on all test metals exposed to salt but corrosion was minimized best with this product. It is also one of the cheapest tested materials. Apply a thin coating to all exterior surfaces and wipe off excess after using clean water & mild soap to remove all accessible dried salty deposits on rod & reel. NOTE: Do NOT dunk reel in a bucket as it introduces water and salt into the inner recesses of the reel. NO reel is "salt proof".Checked my local auto parts store and they did not carry it. Checked Bolo, and there it was. I will update this product once I have used it for a period if I find that it does not meet my expectations.Hope this helps someone.
