Default Best preservation product

I was wondering what was best for preserving frame and steering parts without removing the paint.
I've heard Evaporust mentioned here.

Thanks Yenko.net

I have a product that I saw advertised in one of the magazines. I forgot the name and it's been too darn cold for me to go to my garage, but I'll gladly share the name when I can. The product looks like a clear paste that when warmed turns to a liquid, is then brushed on bare metal, and dries clear with a protective coating. Sounds good in theory, but like I said, I haven't tried it yet.

I have been using Boeshield for years now and it works very well.

Yes Boeshield must be reapplied semi frequently,
Cosmoline works well, I found it to last much longer than Boeshield, it used to be available in aerosol cans.


Much of the preservation work performed is more or less an art which takes a while to get a grasp on, inevitably you are going to ruin something you were trying to preserve. It's best to practice techniques and products on some old interior parts and corroded suspension parts from that pontiac ventura or rambler project before starting in on an un-restored time capsule.

I am on my second can of RPM. What I like on it is there is no sticky oil residue.
