As I reseason with beeswax it stays "stickey" because it cools and sticks to it. It leaves a protective layer that keeps it from rusting no matter if I use lt 2 days or 2 years from when I put it away. For my rendezvous set this is a concern because it may sit all winter. It also doesn't seem to leave any discenable taste behind. I've even used the beeswax instead of oil cooking things like pancakes.
