You could use a last polish with a metal polishing compound like Autosol. It
says it contains a protector against oxidation. Just a thought and it would
give it a nice final buff :-)

     Listers:
     
     I got bored watching the leaves fall (and thinking how much fun 
     it'll be raking them), so I removed my dingy looking accelerator 
     linkage.  I used a Dremel tool and wire brushed then buffed it till 
     it shined (I said I was bored!).  The linkage came up very shiny; 
     it looks like it was plated (chrome?), actually looks nice.
     
     Now, how do I keep it that way?  Is there any recommended way to 
     preserve the shine (wax? clear paint?).
     
     Thanks,
     Rick Olson
