Following up on the lanolin comment , I've used Fluid Film as a spray rust preservative when storing motorcycles. http://www.fluid-film.com/

Another compound I'm told can be used as a release coating for painted surfaces is spray cooking oil. Apparently, spraying cooking pan release spray on your historically appropriately painted vehicles keeps the dirt and grime from sticking to the paint and thereby degrading it. The spray washes off with water and won't harm the pigments. (Just repeating something I heard or read, haven't proved it myself.)

I spray Krown T40 on the Salters and chains of a few different municipalities and a number of landscaping companies. Before doing that the chain drive motors and chains were breaking on start up after 6 months of sitting but no more. With Krown the oil is just the carrier for the rust inhibitors so even when the oil is gone the inhibitors are still there. As for salt we have a product called Salt Eliminator which you spray on let it sit then rinse. It removes all the salt and all the chemicals that you can't see, especially with what we spray on our roads these days. Just so I'm up front with everyone I own the Krown shop and I've been spraying for the last 33 years, not trying to sell anything just my 2 cents.
