Ah yes, the finish of choice for motorcyclists building "specials" to be
ridden rather than looked at. Primarily because it is very hard wearing
and very protective against corrosion (we put salt on our roads in
winter, so that's really important). It's also relatively inexpensive.
I'm not sure it would be good for camera bodywork, though - IIRC you'd
have to coat both sides and then it might not fit back on.
