I knew they weren't painted, but I was wondering if he had coated them with a light oil or something else to ward off instant oxidation (that I would have to clean off). I plan on rinsing them down with solvent anyway before covering them with POR-15 hi-temp gray. A lot of people have had excellent results with it. I've heard the VHT turns a goldish color after a few heat cycles.
They look great! Lucky for me, they were premo examples to begin with.
