Engine protection

Post by jigga1980 »

I have tiny bits of corrosion on my zxr's engine cover. Is there a product I can buy to protect it? Some sort of spray?


Thanks

Thing is it washes off in rain but otherwise a well reccomended spray from what ive heard. Best bet is to strip the cover and repaint it or polish it :smt003

Yes it is.

Only a few 'scuffs' not a major problem.
