    As far as I know 3 in 1 is just a plain light oil. WD 40 is better
    even if it has been tarred by a lot of myths. A good light rust
    preventative is Sheath ( now rebranded as Barricade) it is made by
    Birchwood Casey. I have been using it on tools and firearms for over
    50 years without a complaint. Found in most gun shops. They also make
    metal finishes ( patina chemicals)

    LPS 3 is a similar one.
