    As I understand the original question... What to put on tools to
    prevent rusting... 

    For years I have used Eezox. It's really the ideal product as it
    applies easily and puts on a thin protecting coat which becomes
    nearly dry. It does not attract dust or water. It prevents rust, it
    does not remove dust; it preserves what you have. It is therefore
    widely used in the collectible/antique firearms trade to preserve but
    not disturb patina. 

    For tools I often use, i rub the stuff in then wipe off with a clean
    rag after each use. For tools I rarely use, I rub the stuff on and
    put away without wiping. In this use it dries to a very lite, waxy
    feeling film that wipes clean with a lite touch. A tiny amount on a
    swab goes a long way. A 4 oz can will last more than a year. 

    If your local gun shop/sporting goods store does not have it, search
    on eBay.
