What's the best in rust prevention? Feel free to make comments/suggestions on any category listed below.
Rust Prevention Products vs. Salt Tests:
Any other tests?
Here's an old (2008) but good thread which I've summarized:
DO's
CLP (clean lube Protect)
Home remedy
Military
Dessicants
Moisture Barriers
Cloth/Bag
Refinish
Dont's:
Lay guns on leather, foam, or other moisture absorbing material. Basically your average gun case and carrier is bad.
