>I had an original shroud on my 72 TR6. B I would not advising dipping it. B I
wiped it with a damp rag, and in your case I would sand the
>rivets with fine sand paper, and then I sprayed the whole thing with black,
flat spray paint.

When I restored TR3A TS 58667, I bought a new cardboard radiator duct.B  I did
spray it with 3 M rubberized wheel well paint to protect it, since List
experience indicated these deteriorate rapidly. It stillB  deteriorated
rapidly.B 

Ran the car this season without a duct with noB  problem, but want to
re-install a duct.B  Don't want to repeat the same experience, so am looing
for alternatives.B 

Any suggestions out there?
