After about 5 minutes of heavy scrubbing the tables were rust-free. I started using Top Saver about 6 months after I bought my table saw and jointer because I was dismayed at the rusty smudges appearing on the table tops. Pushing boards across the jointer requires much less muscle.The buttery smell is also pleasant. It works well at protecting the raw metal surfaces, and it also drastically reduces sliding friction. I have corrosively sweaty palms, and it doesn't take long for a tool to be wrecked in my hands. Almost as good as new, just some minor discoloring.That was 5 years ago, and the tools haven't changed a bit. Makes me want to eat popcorn. I re-apply Top Saver every few months when a smudge appears.
Perhaps it was due to the temperatures dropping into the 20s, but DO NOT purchase and use this product to protect bare metal on woodworking machines that are going to be unused for a few months during the winter. I recently applied this product to the tops of my tablesaw, joiner, and bandsaw, and was startled to find, about two weeks later, a coating of rust on all three machines. In fact, I was able to detect small pactches on the sides of the machine tables where I had neglected to apply the product, and where the metal had still not rusted. Quite possibly the worse single product I have ever purchased. This is a ridiculously poor product.
Excellent product, did exactly was it was advertised to do. It three or four applications and elbow grease to get my table saw top to the condition I wanted but I am very satisfied with the product.
After using the sealer the surfaces were back to their original smoothness. I used it on my wood joiner, table saw and band saw. This product will remove light rust from raw metal surfaces. It worked great. It was worth the money if you have no other similar products at home. However, you will notice discoloration in the areas where rust had been.
Restored an oxidized saw table to almost new. Finally, a product that actually works on rust. Easy to use.
