I just had my JBA a arms installed yesterday, and after taking some pictures I had noticed some contact marks on my front springs when I had the stock a arms. Hopefully now that I have JBA's, the contact will disappear.

Now for the mark it left on my springs, what should I put on it to prevent it from rusting and affecting the performance of the spring?

Neal, I'm lucky enough to have access to a rust encapsulator at work. I've heard people have used POR-15 with good success.

Black nail polish? To avoid overspray/masking
