Need recommendations for steel bar plate for work bench

[desullivan]

Just found 4x6 inch plate 1" thick on ebay that was sandblasted already and pulled trigger on it.  I will try the metal polish to keep it from getting surface rust and wipe it down before use.

Just use Carnauba wax on it occasionally after polished, it will keep it from rusting.
