A few years back, Fine Woodworking Magazine did a test review on about 12 rest inhibitors. CRC 3-36 came out on top when tested on steel plates. I've been a woodworker for 48 years and use it on all my cast-iron machine tops. Depending on the weather here in California, I get about 3 months out of a light application before having to re-apply it. I apply it with a small of cloth at the end of the day. It seems to fill the micro pores of the iron. I wipe any excess in the morning. It makes my table tops slicker. It has never caused fish eye in any of my finishes. It is also a good lubricant. Hope that helps. **Q: What is the difference between this product and the technical grade CRC 3-36?** A: On the lower right side of the can is a number. I have seen 03003, 03005, and 03160 so far, so the 3-36 actually comes in different products. The technical specifies can be used on almost anything so one product can be used on metals, plastics and wire insulation as well as transformers etc. It costs more but has superior penetration for better protection. On Amazon there is the suggested other possible choices. Pull up each of these on the CRC products and go down to the technical description to compare. I have been quite happy with the CRC 3-36 that I have used for rust prevention on iron tools. **Q: How does crc 3-36 lubricant differ from crc 6-56?** A: Crc 6-56 is designed for salt water environments, more specifically, to protect marine engines during storage and to free up rusted parts that have been subjected to galvanic corrosion typically seen in marine engines. Crc 3-36 is the milder, less hardcore, and less expensive rust inhibitor. I use it indoors to keep my machines from developing surface rust. Excellent product. **Q: Can you use this for locks and hinges? Does it leave a residue? Want to use it for auto ignition and door hinges.** A: It is clear and leaves a thin film. Would be great for hinges I think. ## Frequently Bought Together - CRC 03007 3-36 16oz Multi-Purpose Lubricant and Corrosion Inhibitor Spray Bottle - CRC 06026 Heavy Duty Corrosion Inhibitor, 10 Wt Oz - CRC 05103 QD Electronic Cleaner -11 Wt Oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/8463347-crc-3-36-multi-purpose-lubricant-and-corrosion-inhibitor-16](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/8463347-crc-3-36-multi-purpose-lubricant-and-corrosion-inhibitor-16) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-29*
