[net.cycle] pitting problems

rjr (02/22/83)

During the past 2 months my cycle has been sitting in my garage due to the
lovely New Jersey weather. I just broke it out yesterday (due to a warm spell)
and noticed that the brushed aluminum (wheels,casings,etc.) has become pitted.
I tried using Mother's Aluminum and Chrome Polish on these surfaces,but the
pits are still visible, although somewhat reduced. Question: Is there a 
better product for my needs, or am I going to have to apply a hell of a lot
more time and elbow grease to remove the pits? Also, what can I use to 
protect these surfaces the next time I store the bike for an extended time
period?
Thanks in advance,
Bob Riley
