Did they Ban it? I recalled it being banned, but not where.

This is more in response to a comment that it was no longer available in
another post. I do know that it is not as widely available any more in some
areas and that some people cannot find it. I saw it last week at Lowe's.

You know that TopCote that is always mentioned? ;~) I use it on my hand
tools, cast iron surfaces, any thing that needs a bit of a slippery surface
or light lubrication. I use it on the gears under my TS.
I have found it recently in my local Ace hardware store.

Yep! Not the place for paste wax or a big gob of grease.

My local true value carries it. I bought a can because of all the mention and
praise of it in this ng, nice price. I used it to double coat my plane blades,
but with a lot of handling with sweaty hands while sharpening, it becomes
tacky and seems to loosen off. I wonder if there is such a polishing wax that
does not do that...?
