  That is interesting, I think I will try the graphite lube idea.

  Decades ago, I had a exhaust manifold Aluminized, basically they 
sprayed on melted aluminum, it gave it a rough texture but it lasted 
decades and still looked good when I sold the car.  Don't know where to 
get that done now, or even if it still done.

A gun is like a parachute, if you need one but don't have it,
you'll probably never need one again.
