Anti-Rust for Coilover

Made a purchase for D2(K-Sport) Coilover's, I highly doubt that

this kit is treated with some coating for anti-rust? Basicaly, does

anyone know of some agent that is a "d.i.y" deal or would this

have to be taken to a professional? Thanks for any input.

you could coat them with a light spray of wd-40 but you'd have to reapply once a month or so

I hear TEIN coat theirs coilovers with a proprietary subtance of

someform. This is what I was in the neighborhood of looking for?

WD-40 every month seems like a pain lolz...

True - my Teins have some grainy gray/black coating on the threads... it would have to be something thin enough to keep the perches spinning freely... maybe some rustproofing product at home depot or something? I can't seem to think of any other idea besides paint, which wouldn't work if you make adjustments often as it will just scratch off the threads...
