    That Japanese oil looks very similar to some food safe oil that I bought from Carbatec some years ago. This video is very timely as I have a band saw table to de-rust,,,,

      It honestly didn’t take very long to clean all the tools up…funny thing to watch out for was the overspray with the WD40, which made the epoxy floor really slippery.

    Thanks for the Video, my table saw also need the same treatment. Nice to see an Aussie making wood working videos on RUclips. I live in Sydney and it's good to get links to the Amazon AU site.
    Thanks - Steve

      Thanks Steve! Great to meet a fellow Aussie, cleaning it only took 20mins or so and I don’t know why I didn’t do it earlier.

    Just a suggestion. Instead of the oil at the end, try car wax. It not only seals your cast iron, it creates a nice slick surface. Another plus is you probably already have some, no additional purchase required. Have a wonderful day.

      Thank you! I do have some laying around. I was thinking of trying Carbon Coat but it is pretty expensive to get in Australia.

      Paste wax works well as well.

      I heard that too, isn’t the Johnson stuff impossible to source these days?

      @@RichmondWoodworksyup. They discontinued it. Here in the states we use Minwax now, but I’d imagine any with little/no die would be fine. Car wax would probably work fine too, I think paste wax being “the thing” is likely just cause woodworkers have it around. “When you’re a hammer” and all. :)

      Next time I am in the US, will need to grab some. I am sure border control will be fine with it!

    nice vid mate - question that I've meant to ask for a bit while watching your vids - what table saw are you using? looks to have a decent extension in the fence adjustment
    I've also cleaned up table tops starting with a Jex pad, then moving to my DA polisher with a a heavy cutting compound, and working up to a polished finish, same as you would with a car

      Thank you! I got the Laguna 2021 Updated Fusion 2 F2 Table Saw from Carbetec in 2022. Great saw, very happy with it, although the dust collection could be a little better. That fence comes with it as standard and has 910mm rip capacity, which an amazing step from the DeWALT job site saw I had before.
