hi guys,
saw a steel frame fixed that was just clear coated and it looked awesome. I've stripped my carlton down the the steel, and have brushed it with a wire cup in a drill and i love the look. Aiming for a really classic vintage feel, just wondered if anyone knows of a good alternative to the clear coat. I'm not too concerned with a finish that needs reapplication every so often. Are ankor wax, and turtle wax my only options? Trawled the internet but might have missed something. I'm guessing it'll be mostly waxes.
Cheers
paul
