[PSUBS-MAILIST] Fluid Film Compensation

[Marc de Piolenc via Personal_Submersibles]

Stuff like this used to be sold in tubes as a long-term preservative (an 
alternative to Cosmoline). It worked in that capacity, but I don't see 
how it could remove existing rust. That would require additional 
ingredients, I think. Pretty sure phosphoric acid would not be 
compatible with the rest of the formulation...
