A fine film of gun grease prevents rust

My reloading dies live in a damp basement. I used to wipe them occasionally with an oil cloth and did have one set develop some minor rusting. Now I apply a fine film of gun grease inside and out and they do not rust.

I have noticed that most of the used reloading dies for sale in the local gun shops have some rusting. All the best...
