Vaseline was more commonly used as a protectant and lube way back. I also have seen and heard of Eastern Shore goose guides melting paraffin as an exterior protectant, especially on Expresses.
IMO, there's better stuff out now. Lately, I've used SLIP 2000 and Mobil One synthetic motor oil.
Both have merit, but the big thing is to use SOMETHING.
Often.....
