On top of all the other things to do put a GOOD coat of wax on everything including the chrome and the Boe-Shield or equivalent the bare steel, aluminum and zinc parts which will keep them from oxidizing.

...and just what is the speed of rust that must be exceeded in order to keep it from taking hold, oh wise one! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: Preventing surface rust in unheated garage
 
Rust development is directly proportional to vehicle speed...
example: if you drive around at 20mph it will only take 20 minutes for rust to form...but if you go 100mph it will take 5 times as long.

So, drive fast and live rust free.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]
