    nothing you can really do apart from what you are doing now mate, just clean it and spray with degreaser and wd40 after every use and keep on top of the cleaning it should stay mint

    You could keep using the WD40 as a cleaner and protector. I used to use it on chrome allspeeds on my 350LC even through winter without probs and the pipes looked mint even a few years later.
    Alternative is to spray them with high temp clear laquer but it dulls very slightly initially and sometimes goes cloudy over time (months as opposed to days

    Callum best way is too carry on as you do warm exhaust up and wipe with wd-40 and keeps in really good condition
