Jim The only bare metal parts I can think of are all aluminum. You can keep them looking good after blasting with a lite coat of WD40. The steel parts are all either painted or parkerized. If you need to know how to parkerize give me a call and I'll set you up. 815-756-2560 Bruce www.harleyrestoration.com ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- I am a first time restorer and am retoring a 1951 Hummer. I would like to keep some of the parts the color of the natural polished metal. What are my options? I have glass beaded the parts but they will rust again. Any help would be appreciated Thanks Jim |
