   NO SILICON

   Assuming the machinery is for woodworking, I recommend Johnson's Paste Wax.  Many have used it for decades with great success at stopping rust and making iron, chrome, wood, etc. surfaces 'slicker.'

   You want to be sure that whatever you use (after removing any rust) does not contain any silicon.  Silicon will transfer to your wood and interfer with any finish you use.

   There will be an ad along shortly for a commercial preparation, but a lot of us just use Bowling alley wax. Apply it with a small piece of cloth, let it dry and then buff it out.

   Any wax will work

   As already pointed out stay away from silicon formulated products. A block of parrafin will work as well and is very handy. There is also a product called Topcote which I have used on molders and works well, it also provides a measure of protection to the beds.
