Finish & Care
The iron components are supplied unfinished. They are intentionally left in their unfinished state so you can prepare and finish them to match your wagon, vehicle, or project. Because the iron is unfinished, it will rust if left unprotected, especially when exposed to moisture or outdoor conditions.
