Default Aluminum finish....

What's the best aluminum finish for polished aluminum pieces? I've polished up my manifold and would like to top it with something to keep oxidation away. I sure as *&^%$ don't want to have to do it again.

By the way, a word to the wise.... don't pick a manifold to be the first piece you try to polish.... there are way too many ways to mess things up.

What do you suggest that will handle the heat and won't have to be redone constantly?

Thanks for any advise,

kdlp
