I got some 2nd hand forks for the RF, and the staunchions ave tiny rust (?) spots on them (like .2mm across, probably same height). Dark brown/black against the ground chrome.
They're enough to make a groove in the fork oil seals so my plan is to grab some super duper fine wet and dry and remove them.
My question is this - is there anything I need to put on them, or could/should I reasonably expect the fork oil/chrome to keep 'em in good enough nick?
Any tips or tricks I should be aware of, or am I simply dreaming and should go get them chromed and ground (which of course is ultimately the right thing to do)
