Ironically, I had originally laid down paste wax, but took it off a few weeks ago after the WWGOA recommendation for Glidecote.
So I've gotten the Sandflex pads, the CRC 3-36 spray, and the dehumidifier. I stripped down all the exposed iron (jointer, saw, planer, sander, drill press, band saw, and shaper). I used WD-40 and the sanding blocks to get up the rust, it went pretty well. I was very gentile with the jointer and left rust that didn't matter.
I cleaned that up and then laid down the CRC 3-36 with a light stray over all the equipment. It wasn't clear how long to leave it on there though? I left it on about 10 minutes, then wiped off the excess. I've now applied the paste wax. and am letting it dry before i clean it off.
Dehumidifier gets turned on tomorrow.
Hopefully I did this right! it was a lot of work. I need a margarita.
New dehumidifier needs to rest for 24 hours after shipment.

Wax applied. Any techniques for hand buffing this out? (Edit: I bought a little Ryobi Buffer)
