Tomorrow All cast Iron will be buffed with a Green Scotched Pad, then wiped clean with Denature Alcohol, then a coat of wiped on 2lb cut of dewaxed Shellac, then the next day buff with a brown paper bag, wipe again, then a JPW coating. Steel will be cleaned and waxed.
Painted surfaces/Melamine surfaces wiped down the same, then just waxed, just smooth as silk!!!!!
TS, CPMS blades soaked in a Baking Soda solution with a titch of MS to clean them up with a Brass Brush. Then some wax on the blade body, not the teeth.

what kind of wax do you use?

Sadly, the originator of this post has passed but I will suggest an answer to your question. Try Johnson Paste Wax (ORIGINAL).
