Cutting tool protection,

[Charlie,Participant @charlie18171]

I would like to source a material the name of which i dont know,It would useualy be found in the corner of most tool rooms in a heated pot,It was amber in coulour, A bit like treacle,The toolmakers would use it to protect freshly sharpened cutters of all sorts as it prohibited rust and stopped the cutters etc chipping,One would just simply dip the cutter in it wait a few seconds and the job was done,Is this material still available?And can it be purchased?
