Well, I'm looking at my arch edges and they are really clean. As id like to keep them that way is there anyway to protect the paint from chipping/rust?
Especially where marked by the arrows in the pic where the spot welds are.
Ideas and suggestions appreciated

I agree J-Tuner,
This is more of a weekend car and not depended on for daily commuting. Im trying my best not to drive it in the rain and have yet in the 5 weeks that I've owned it.
Prevention is definitely better than cure so I'm gonna give the seams/edge another coat of haammerite and keep them as clean as possible.

Yup, I've recently had it all undersealed and prior to that it was in very good condition underneath. I've painted over the edges with a thick coat of hamerite and it looks all in good order. So fingers crossed I may have prolonged their longevity for a while
