I still remember the brown (mud) stripe up the back of us young bicycle riders with no rear fender.

This will solve your issue =

I use the T-9 on my vintage bikes to protect the aluminum without attracting dirt. But it works on all sorts of stuff.

I'm surprised you have rust issues. Isn't it pretty dry down there, Chris?

The key to the T-9 is to spray it on a clean surface and let it dry overnight. Then buff it off. I would hit those springs once a month with the T-9. They just never did a great job of chroming in between the coils.
