Gage blocks on the cheap...
#15
Ken, first of all NICE score on the Starretts !  Also thanks for the detailed description for cleaning up gauge blocks.

Ken or any other knowledgeable person, I have a question:

Suppose one cleaned the surface where rust is starting to form just enough to make the face smooth again but not completely removing signs of corrosion.  If the block is kept well protected with vaseline or other protective film, would that prevent any further rust or not ?

This isn't a rhetorical question, by the way, it is what I did with the gauge block in my set that showed beginnings of rust.  Thanks for any advice.
