I wonder if there's a way to preserve the finish once its been polished? I thought about a good coat of wax, but figured it would just cook off. Is there a type of clearcoat that would withstand the temps, and be able to bond directly to metal? Gotta be some way to keep the bling dammit!

POR-15 makes a clear version of their stuff. You can hit it with a hammer and it won't come off. Doesn't get any better than that.
