But cleans off with some wire wool.
The same stuff i used in the engine bay has stayed the same copper-y colour it was when it was fitted 10 years ago.

1) half the world says is dangerouse and will work harden and crack, the rest did not agree (of course it didn't i'm still here)
2) it goes green when exposed to road grime it goes dull when not. its not staying shiny very long

the standard untreated kunifer, where you can see it give it a buff and spray it in clear coat or brass instrument lacquer if it works on a trumpet or trombone exposed to dribble and beer most of its life, it will work to some extent here

i was going to say remeber the pipe nuts are "No lead" style and there is that odd sized one for the master cylinder to stop you plumbing it all the wrong way round.... but its not a mopar.. forgot
