There is a five year study to find out what the best rust protection. Such a study is of historic proportions because these are not done scientifically that often And and because our vehicles and some of ourselves are also becoming historic. Included in the study is Fluid Film and wax methods and other methods, some of which seem to do better than wax to which I have traditionally been biased. The URLs of the study are below. I tried to copy and paste the text into Google Translate but for some reason the nature of the language being used makes it harder than usual to make out what they are saying. So if we had somebody who speaks some German look at this and make it more accessible it would really help. The study, progressive from end to beginning, is here: <http://www.oldtimer-markt.de/sites/default/files/oldtimer_markt_rostschutz-test_teil_3.pdf>http://www.oldtimer-markt.de/sites/default/files/oldtimer_markt_rostschutz-test_teil_3.pdf
