Hey guys.
I had a decent manifold failure recently (see picture) so while I was in the process of replacing it i decided I should clean up and treat and paint any rusty parts while the car is in the garage for winter.
the car is from 2007 wuth 120k KM and looks like it has never had a deep clean like this before.
My question is: I have been cleaning the aluminium parts with a soft brass wire wheel to get most of the junk off and it leaves a nice surface. Do I need to protect it some how (lacquer, paint, wax) or will it be okay how it is?
Thanks
