If you are making it or modifying it, repairing it or restoring it, it goes in here.

Yup, another vote for plus gas. Or if that fails a propane torch!

Renaissance wax for the table and also anything else you want to protect - guns (wood and metal) loading gear etc.

If you think you are a person of some importance, try ordering someone else's dog around.

If you put STP in your engine , there is always plenty left in the can that you can never seem to get out .
Fill the STP can with clean engine oil , put the can in warm water and mix the oil and STP .
Then pour into a bottle of some sort .
Just wipe it on to whatever needs protecting .
It will last for ages and is great at preventing rust .

Lets not forget leather, porcelain, oil paintings and more, I get through quite a bit of the stuff and can understand why it is available in such large cans.
