This stuff is supposed to be very good at protecting your magnesium wheels or bare metal parts from corrosion.

Guys, what do you think about glass or fine sand blast repro BRMīs to get rid of the clearcoat and coating with this afterwards?

This should give all you BRM nutters the ability to keep your wheels slightly oxidized for that genuine feel, yet they won't get any worse.

Thats what my friend G77/Gav did to his repros BUT he did not clear coat them afterwards he just keeps polishing them with Autosol polish and I think they look pretty dam good, Just make sure after blasting you go through allthe grades of wet'n'dry paper right down too 1500 paper - I think you will be pleased with the finish  :)

I'm in the UK and I want some too, for my BRM's and for my 911's fan and manifolds. The early 911 US guy's have been telling me about this for ages. I wonder why is there no UK ditributor? We have one of the dampest climates in the world!
