out of curiosity as i've had numerous steel frames over the years and this is the first i've had issues with would a consumer be expected to re-apply frame saver to a steel frame or would it be something you'd have done professionally?

To be honest, not something I've ever done on my own frames either but now that I work at a steel frame makers, we tell each customer to reapply it after a year or so.
Maybe the framebuilder will do something for you though. If there's no breather holes, it's a different conversation

What would you do to a frame with no breather holes as routine maintenance?

Drill some 😂

Contentious issue as some builders swear by sealing tubes and having no breathers. Others say it's a recipe for disaster
