Bert,
As always, Google is your friend!
http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=26344/Product/RUST_VETO
By the gallon and the initial price looks quite reasonable. $34.95/gallon
+ shipping?
I had remembered a buddy that is in to guns having a formula to make it,
so
just looked up...how to make it....and ended up at the URL above.
I think painted rather than speayed would be better.
Cheers, dave

Volks,
The metal springs of our old beetles came coated with a flexible waxy
Cosmoline covering that did a pretty good job of preventing rust. In
getting the frames cleaned up and repainted, I usually end up damaging and
partially removing some of this Cosmoline.
I've found the Cosmoline Web site. Sadly, they won't sell spray cans of the
stuff in quantities smaller than a case. A writer to one forum says that
Eastwood Heavy-duty Anti-rust is the same stuff.
Anybody know where to find small quantities of Cosmoline at retail? Know of
any more readily available products that do the same thing -- that is, a
flexible, waxy, permanent coating for seat springs?
