I have 3 LV backsaws and 1 LN tapered dovetail saw. The wax has protected the LVs just fine. But I've got a dozen small spots of rust all over the LV. (I waxed all of them the same day.) I can't get the black marks off using automotive sandpaper ("wetpaper"), steel wool, automotive rubbing compound, or even evapo-rust. The black marks stay there (in very shallow pits I guess). No impact to function but I'm disappointed because this is a really nice saw and the marks look crappy. I am being very careful not to bend this saw so I dont want to apply a lot of pressure.
Any ideas guys?
Thank you!
Fred
