I use fine steel wool, and or scotchbrite pads, along with WD-40 on mine. Make sure you have pleanty of old rags or paper towels on hand, to wipe off the rusty residue as well.

As mentioned above, then follow up with Johnsons paste wax or one of the spray on "table savers", fwiw.

Thanks bc_z and Wayne, steelwool and WD-40 it is. I had a bright idea and stacked some treated lumber on my table saw, uuhhhh,, turned out to not be so bright.
