What did the military coat their weapons with in World War 2 to keep them from rusting while shipping?
Cosmoline. Very difficult to clean off.
Are mitchell's mausers kr98k's restored?
Yes. My own experiences with Mitchell's Mausers is that only some of them are. A lot of them are just given a basic heat treatment to remove cosmoline off the surface, and left at that, They'll often still have cosmoline soaked into the furniture, as well as inside the bolt carrier, which will require disassembly of the bolt carrier group to clean off.
How do you remove cosmoline?
i used kerosene but it has to sit in the sun to get it hot so the cosmoline comes out of the pores of the gun

Is Cosmoline Grease derived from Whales you have often heard this Say the Red Army used it to lube weapons and missiles?
Cosmoline is defined elsewhere in Wiki land and is, short story, crude Vaseline. It is the gooey stuff left after all the various fuels, solvents, etc have been distilled out of petroleum. Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) is refined from cosmoline. All the armies of the world have long used cosmoline to preserve firearms and other rust able hardware for long term storage, by means of painting the goo on all exposed surfaces. It is far too sticky for use as a lubricant. TEKnapp

no
How do gunsmiths clean guns?
Depends. If you wanted me to just give it a regular cleaning, I'd disassemble it, and then clean it with my secret cleaning solution - hot water and Dawn dish soap. Seriously. If, on the other hand, you wanted cosmoline removed from a military surplus rifle which has been in storage, that gets to be a much more complicated process. There are multiple methods for this, and none of them are particularly fast in any way.

Which type of oil is used in watch?
This has nothing to do with science-fiction but in former decades Sperm oil- yes from the Sperm Whale was used to lubricate fine watches and other scientific instruments. It was also part of the ingredients of the service lubricant Cosmoline- which does have a Russian sound, and a neat smell at operant temperatures. They used a lot of Cosmoline at Palisades Park!
