    How do you guys protect your frames if you only go out a few times a year? We're getting this flash rusting, esp beneath the headers, we scotchbrite back clean and have tried different oils & cosmoline, we're thinking of treating the frame with ospho to see if that is a better solution.
    What do you guys do?
    thanks, Oj

    Temperature stable shop to prevent condensation, WD-40 applied often by shop towel during racing & in shop. WD-40 the headers after every pass.

    Yes, I've heard of Gibbs, never used it but have heard good things about it from many people. Thanks for the reminder.

    I use Remington gun oil applied with a scotch bright pad, and wipe off excess with rag.
