Mag Surface Rust

[CC3D]

I've had an ongoing issue with surface rust on my TS magazines. Hitting with some steel wool and keeping a film of oil on the mags at all times has worked, but wiping them down and re-oiling them even time I touch them is getting tedious. Are there any simple solutions or diy home coatings that will work for surface rust on a magazine specifically? I feel that sending them off to be coated is a bit drastic but just trying to explore options.

I have a silicone cloth. Just wipe them down after a match and don't think about them again til next practice/match

I asked mecgar and mbx to make mags for the TSO but still no luck.  
I guess the tactical sport mags are still factory made. 
they have the worst finish I’ve ever seen, I had some brand new mags show up with a dusting of rust.

Isn't Meg-Gar the OEM for CZ mags?

You can use one of the thermoset resins that are available like KG Gunkote or Norrell's MolyResin to coat them.  If properly applied they can withstand 1000 hours in a salt spray test.  Alternatively you can send them off to a place like Mahovsky's Metalife and have them plated with Nickel Boron or hard chrome.

Not all cz mags

I believe the regular sp01 18rd thin baseplate black follower mags are also factory made.
