I hope you reconsider.

Thanks for the comments! However, I think I'm missing something. If I'm using Penetrol on rusty metal with bare metal spots to slow down rust, and I am not planning to apply primer or paint to these same areas for at least several years, where am I going wrong? I've seen a number of builds on this site that have done the same and have not (maybe not yet) seen any negative reports.
If Penetrol is still a poor choice, whats the alternative to slow rust but otherwise leave the patina alone?
Thanks again!
