>from the shift cable thread

"Dissolve a moly grease (Synpower, Durablend, Caterpillar Desert Gold) in Acetone or MEK and put it in a plastic ketchup squeeze bottle"

I have a large trailer with about 120' of steel square-tube frame. Even with weep holes, it needs more protection from internal rusting in my locale. The above formula (and the diy atf nut-buster) got me thinking about a waxoil home brew. Any suggestions?

I just bought some of this, I will let you know how it works.
Honda pilot shift cable, Mini Cooper hood release cable, gmc speedometer and accel cable all need a shot.
