What do you do to weather proof your flintlocks??? I seen a show that showed them melting candle wax around the lock, has anyone ever done something like this???

35 years out in woods of pa. hunting the buck and i cant remember ever putting anything on or over my frizzen. i was in some real bad rains over years too. i stick the frizzen under my arm while sitting in rain.i had too think,hmmmmmmm,i believe i only shot 1 buck in rain. it was always after rain that deer would move.i see people using saran wrap a lot, i find it laying on the pipelines and on the paths .they eat their sandwich and use the wrap over frizzen.
