Question?  How do the factories finish the threads on the e of tie rod ends.

I want to paint my tie rods.  I don't think I should paint the threads, as
this will foul them so you can make the adjustments.  How do the factories
finish their threads.  I was thinking mask off the threads and use some type
of lubricant on the threads to keep them from rusting.
