Any good metal finishing news groups?

I have an old steel tire rim that will be sandblasted clean and I need suggestions as to the best finish to protect it long term. It is going in the trunk, boot, of a 77 Mini Cooper S show car, which is seldom driven and always stored inside. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The current Democratic party has lost its ideological basis for existence.

- It is NOT fiscally responsible.

- It is NOT ethically honorable.

- It has started wars based on lies.

- It does not support the well-being of americans - only billionaires.

- It has suppresed constitutional guaranteed liberties.

- It has foisted a liar as president upon America.

- It has violated US national sovereignty in trade treaties.

- It has refused to enforce the national borders.

Cooper S show car,

Prototypical finish would be a single coat of black, brown or aluminium paint as appropriate. No primer, no filler :-)
