Default MoonDog frame....

I have a green MoonDog. I sanded it down to the bare metal in a place or two over a month ago, and it still has not even discolored! Usually a frame would show surface rust/discoloration in as little as a few hours, especially when it's humid like it has been lately.

Anyone know what type of steel they were made from?

Well my Point Beach is aluminum. Aren't they both made by that Pacific Brand?
