Paste Wax on a Table Saw
This table saw tip will help prevent your table saw top from rusting. It will also help your stock slide easier across the top by applying Johnson’s Paste Wax. I use this on my table saw to help everything glide smooth on the top and prevent rusting. You can also use steel wool and mineral spirits to remove rust from your table saw before applying the paste wax to the saw. Applying paste wax to the saw is a great way to maintain the finish and useability of your saw for years to come.

Hey Matt, I have the same table saw and love it as well. Have you thought about an outfeed table and found any online for purchase? I’m looking for one before I think about having to build one.
"Slick as owl snot" ?? Hahahaha, that’s a new one for me 😁
I have a few tips on how to keep your table saw from wobbling.
How often do you find yourself having to reapply the wax?
Wow mine dosent slide that well , then again mine is a portable and aluminum i think
I have a older craftsman 113 table saw. Wax is a life saver on it.
Picked me up some of that Johnson’s today. Hope you’re doing well.
I have a question, I just bought a craftsman table saw used not new and wondering if you can tell me what is a good blade to rip boards with?any bell is appreciated, thanks
Gang!!!!! Matt and Amy are awesome. Spread the word to have friends subscribe to the channel, and “like” his vids!!!
The fact that you didn’t bother to clean the sawdust off of your table saw beforehand, tells me everything I need to know about you and the work that you do.
Take pride in what you do boy !

Awesome tip Matt, thanks for the video!
This guy looks a lot like Donald Cowboy Cerrone!

Working with pine often, I’ve noticed a bit of sap buildup on my table saw surface. Any reccs for cleaning solvents or scraping before waxing?
Great work simple and to the point.
Another tip, if you use a saw sled, paste wax the bottom of that and the runners. It will make owl snot seem sticky.
The big benefit of the paste wax is it doesn’t have chemicals to stain the wood. Car wax will produce the same slick and protective surface, but contains staining chemicals that will react with tannic acid in many wood types.
Always awesome when I Google something, like "how to paste was a cast iron table saw", and your video is the first result Matt!
