Unpainted Cast Iron

Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the table by removing vises and fixtures daily and by wiping the table clean after every use—this ensures moisture does not remain on bare metal surfaces.

Keep tables rust-free with regular applications of products like G96® Gun Treatment or Boeshield® T-9. See below for Grizzly model numbers:
