If your  budget can stand it, grab up several cans of LPS-3.   Most of  
the bigger auto parts stores carry it.   Not as cheap as used  motor 
oil by a long shot but the stuff is bang-up good, sticks well, dries  
semi-waxy and won't arbitrarily pick up every little speck of trash  
that comes close.   It stays put, won't drip off, and will come  off 
fairly easy if washed with a hot-water pressure washer.    Otherwise 
it's there to stay unless abraded or brushed  off.



Is that paraffin or wax based?  My one and only new Monza was sprayed  with 
a waxy coating for its trip from the factory.  The excess that dripped  
into the lower front fender and the rockers really slowed rust.
