I have an old steel tire rim that will be sandblasted clean and I need suggestions as to the best
finish to protect it long term. It is going in the trunk, boot, of a 77 Mini Cooper S show car,
which is seldom driven and always stored inside. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The current Democratic party has lost its ideological basis for
existence.
- It is NOT fiscally responsible.
- It is NOT ethically honorable.
- It has started wars based on lies.
- It does not support the well-being of americans - only billionaires.
- It has suppresed constitutional guaranteed liberties.
- It has foisted a liar as president upon America.
- It has violated US national sovereignty in trade treaties.
- It has refused to enforce the national borders.

....It no longer has valid reasons to exist.

Prototypical finish would be a single coat of black, brown or aluminium paint
as appropriate. No primer, no filler :-)
