I've done some of my own testing applying water to metal coated with waxes, oils and RIG, and found that in comparison, the waxes offer little or no protection from corrosion, the Break Free CLP does very well, and the RIG grease is phenomenally resistant to corrosion.
But what does best for protecting the stock against water spotting? I have used Ren Wax, and really like it for the luster it puts on a stock, but I have had two instances, my father one, and I've read about two other cases where guns were shot in the rain with Ren Wax, and suffered water spots, which were extremely difficult to remove. Does Johnson's Paste Wax, or any other product, do a better job? I'd sure be interested in suggestions.
