Aiden of Oreland:
Wow! I am going to have to get some of that Break-Free CLP! Really holding up! That Ezzox looks pretty good too.

He put the last 4 samples in a salt-water bath and hung them back out.  CLP, Ezzox, Fluid film are still good.  WD-40 finally started to rust.  Now he soaked them overnight in plain water, and they're still looking pretty good.  The only one that is rusty now is the WD-40.  But after 3 weeks, and constant humidity and salt-water treatments with no re-application of the oils, all of those preventatives are working exceptionally well.

Sir Edward:

I just wanted to add this again, since it came up at VARF this season, and Baron de Magnan was asking about where to get these.

Albion uses the grey ultra-fine Scotchbrite pads to do their finishing work, and so you can use them on Albions without changing the finish. They work great for armor as well.

Amazon has them here:  http://amzn.com/B000CQ6I7G

Sir Martyn:
Good tip, thanks.

Aiden of Oreland:
Awesome, I could use one of those.
