This is my cases after aqua blasting




Been discussing on the RD forum how to finish and one suggestion is silver Ceracote as its thinner than paint and and very petrol and solvent resistant

Thanks to everyone for their comments. Overall it looks as if polishing gives the best results, even if it’s not the way it looked when the bikes left the factory - while aquablasting also produces good results but seems then to need some other from of finishing.

Not original but I'd polish up to remove the visible rusting then a coat of some sort of underseal / Waxoyl to keep the noise down on gravel strikes!
I suspect the reality is a used bike will show use.
