Hubs or hub carriers? You can get some cracking hubs from http://www.compbrake.co.uk for almost pence. As the carriers are cast I've actually left mine rusty paperbag

Tsk TSk, it takes 10 mins to clean the ford uprights and paint them....

As for the hubs, paint the rears and the copperslip you use will keep the fronts healthy.
