Polishing up the forks
I've got the polishing kit and slowly getting round to using it. Starting with the forks (thanks to Pete pointing out the state of them!
 ) Now the thing I need to know is how to protect all my hard work after they're done. Do I lacquer them or does that go funny after a while? Over to Lissa!

 Just wiping them over with WD40 will keep them looking good most of the time, with an occasional good going over with solvol autosol
