Wondering if anyone knows of good product to maintain finish on magnesium,especially valve covers?

dreracecar:
the kid next door and $10

  When not in use for, keep stored in a vacuum bag and then a quick buff when needed

A polished finish just takes work DOW7 just keep it oiled I’ve heard people powder coat their magnesium with decent results but for me why have MAG if you’re going to hide it!

wideopen231:
they have dow 7 coating now and I want to keep it looking good. Car was in trailer for one week and they started to fuzz up. I wiped them down with wd40 and it got them back to good and seemed to remove the texture roughness from the fuzz(I call it). dehumidifier is in trailers future.
