Here is a product that I highly recommend for keeping your tools from rusting in a salt atmosphere. Its called Target Tool and Die Saver, Its a specialty coating which penetrates metal pores and seals out air and moisture. Protects against rust and corrosion. It is a spray and its recommended to protect metal molds, tools and dies. Its made in Canada by Releasail-Target Int'l., 165 Bates, Montreal, Quebec H3S1A1. Ive never ordered it myself so Im not sure exactly where its available from except the factory above. I usually have a friend of mine get it for me. He is the head of a factory maintenance program where he works. Great stuff. I usually coat the tops of my planer, saws, etc when I am expecting to be away for a while. Never any rust on anything when I get back and I live on the Gulf of Mexico and my tools are 30 feet from the edge of the water. Rustless in Florida, docmoss MT44
