Refurbishing table saw top, seal with????

Johnsons paste wax for furniture. You should be able to find it at the big box store

You might also want to consider Renaissance wax or T-9 Boeshield. Both do a good job of inhibiting rust.

Another product to consider is Zerust Inhibitor. This is sold by Woodcraft and is supposed to inhibit rust formation by emitting a rust inhibiting vapor. A review on it has been posted. I have not used it personally but the manufacturer claims it’s larger product can cover a 6’ radius and last up to two years.

Perfect, thank you.

Paste wax – works for me

-- "so much to learn and so little time"..

I second the paste wax… It’s fairly dry here in Vegas so rust isn’t too much of a problem, but I use regular ol’ Minwax Paste Wax from the home center. Just make sure you buff it well and check with a raking light to make sure you’ve buffed every square inch… I missed a spot at the back edge of the blade well in my table saw and almost had a catastrophe when the friction increased under only one side of the cut as it hit the dry un-buffed pad of wax…. it didn’t kick back(thankfully,) but it definitely pinched the blade and caused a good bit of burning on the side of a piece…

Any floor or auto wax will do the job just re apply ever now and then. I use it on my out feed and work table too to make it easy to get the glue off easily

All my cast iron gets a liberal coating of Johnson’s paste wax. Works miracles until I drip sweat all over the table and rinse the wax off with salty sweat… But that is more of a climate control thing than anything else… And with the weather cooling off, not such a big deal..

If you use automotive products make sure that it doesn’t have silicone. I use Butcher Bowling Alley wax.
