Do any other Stella owners have problems with getting rust on their fork? The front seems to get worse and worse everyday. All the pictures I see they look pristine.

I posted on this a while ago. I cover my Stella every night and polish it probably twice a month and the fork is crazy rusty. I live a mile from the Pacific/San Francisco Bay so the air is a little salty here but it's still a little surprising. Even other SF Stellas I see don't seem as bad as mine.

Thanks for the info, thought I was the only one. Might try to repaint it if I ever get motivated.

Painted the fork, came out nicely, bet in a few weeks it will be rusty again. A losing battle here in Charleston, SC.
