So I was at work the other day and the Farm Manager was taking diesel fuel and spraying down the old pieces of equipment. He was saying something about how it would help or completely stop the metal from rusting away anymore. I was just wondering if anyone else did this to there equipment, and why in the world does this work?
I spray the seed cups in my grain drill with diesel every few months. Diesel is waxy and doesn't evaporate rapidly like gasoline.
