This disclaimer on aircooled.net website bothers me.  They
expect you to REMOVE and WAX these things every few weeks or the
warranty is VOIDED??????  HA!

"To aid in the longevity, and to prevent rust on powder coated
black parts, we recommend that you apply a polish or wax to all
backside and welded areas before assembling and installing, and
again every two to three weeks.

We also recommend sealing areas that are impossible to
powdercoat with a primer or clear coat paint. Areas of
particular attention should be all welds, backsides, Butt seams,
and where wires meet the plates. This procedure must be followed
in areas where there are severe weather conditions. If there is
salt on the road, it may be necessary to clean parts daily. It
is YOUR responsibility to protect the finish with applications
of a non-abrasive polish or wax.

Note: Warranty on finish is void if these instructions are not
followed."
