I am ready to tackle the intake/exhaust manifolds. Once they are sandblasted what is recommended to put on them when restoring trying to keep it as original as possible? I'm not sure what folks do.
Thanks in advance for all the help.

It was very easy to apply. Touch up is a breeze, and it still looks great. Beats any other method I've tried over the last 40+ years.
