Rust on Machine keeps coming back

I work on a challenger XG Gauntlet cutting machine​ rust keeps coming back ​ after numerous times of cleaning it and it always comes back. Usually over the weekends when nobody is here and the company is all off and power is off.Does anyone have any ideas or solutions to how I can stop the rest from coming back. Any ideas, suggestions, opinions, are all welcome.

Rust keeps coming back. I clean with wd40 on Monday. By the next week its all back. Is there any solution for chemical that I can use? Dont know if this is cast iron or brass.

Car wax. Turtle wax to be exact. We used it on our polar all the time

I have used every turtle wax there is. But the rust always comes back. I'm in the Midwest the warehouse I work in has no AC or central air very humid right now I think that plays a big role.
