Scott found the ceramic spray wasn't working that well where there is metal on metal contact. Even though the ceramic particles are tiny they still are going to leave a rough surface. On the legs and castings it could turn out to provide excellent surface protection.

In your opinion are the ones from SS better all-around for the price? I think so with current prices. I have used those Shopsmith belts and they last longer and cut better. They also clean well.
