What to use to keep tools rust free in storage

Hi Ruta,

Can you share any experience you've had for something that will
keep tools from rusting and yet be somewhat easy to remove after
they have arrived at my new destination? 

My studio is damp, and I like to coat my tools with paste wax. It
doesn’t need to be removed when you want to use the tool, and doesn’t
attract and hold dust and grit the way oil does. Look for a paste wax
that does not have any “cleaners” in it. If it contains carnauba wax,
that is terrific, since carnauba is a very hard wax. I have some old
Simoniz car wax that I use. I think that you might also be able to
find butchers wax or bowling alley wax.

I would suggest that additionally, you place things in enclosed
containers with a moisture absorbing product (just googled the
“phrase moisture absorbing product” and found a lot of choices.)
