Juat another angle on the forks, refurbed mine about 15 months ago ended up using brake caliper spray paint from halfords (no comments please).
Fair selection of colours, finish was hard wearing and had that original satin look if thats what your after worth thinking about.

Re: Chain Lube, Chain Wax, or WD40?

My fav is Wurth High Performance Dry Chain Lub, very little fling off hence no mess.
