I had a radio chassis that had rust .
After it was cleaned down I put a light coat of turtle wax on it , and it still looks good .

Thanks, perhaps I'll give that a try.

I've spent a lot of time lurking in the antique radio forums. Those guys go to great lengths sometimes like replating a chassis with cadmium.

Seems to me that every TV chassis I've come across has been bare steel or maybe zinc plated.
