    Weld Table Rust?

    I recently bought a HF welding table. The top came well coated with waxy oil. I cleaned that off with solvent, but maybe I shouldn't have? I re-coated it with a rag soaked with motor oil. What do you all use to keep the table from rusting?

    Is boiled linseed oil a useful rust preventative for seasonal implements stored outdoors?

    I seem to be adding attachments that are used only infrequently or seasonally. Some are showing exposure. (rust and paint deterioration) Would a spray of boiled (or even raw) linseed oil be as useful as something like " fluid film", or NH undercoating/ This would be an "OVER PAINT" application.

    Hello all. Is there a spray I can apply to the underside of my brush hog to neutralize the rust and kinda just help preserve it between uses. The person that had it before me let it sit for a while and I don’t want it to spread anymore. I’ll be storing it on blocks under a covered area when it’s...

    Hello, I am considering buying this tractor. 1300 hours, engine runs fantastic. I have significant concerns about the amount of rust, specifically on the front axles.
