Interesting YT rust inhibitor test

[AZjeff]

This guy has some good content on his YouTube channel Fireball Tool, he knows machining and fabricating and makes some very cool tools and machines. He did this simple test of rust inhibiting products, the surprise winner was Sta-Bil Rust Stopper, never even heard of it. Much easier to listen to than PF.

As long as he is not PF, its OK.

If it was PF, people would flip out.

Here's a funny story - well, not really funny!
Back in 1995 when I entered my first car show, I used the:

"MINWAX Paste Finishing Wax" on the 1980 Firebird FORMULA in my signature.
I took me 4X longer to wax my car than with a conventional car wax.
I had to apply it in very small sections and remove the wax right away. But I'll tell you what, the paint never looked so brilliant. The paint was deeper and richer looking than when the car was brand new in 1980.

I've never used it again due to it being so difficult to use and the Minwax is not made for automotive paints bit it is made for wood furniture and designed to use with a buffer whereas I did my car by hand.

Here's the car and what is looks like today. Although this picture is about 10+ years ago, it still looks like this.

I really liked his mythbusting about dulling a file when running it backwards, and his test machine complete with a counter was pretty slick
