Yeah the Granville stuff is good, I used that and was pleased with the finish and it lasted well enough in and of itself.
But alas my pipes were already too far gone to be saved; I got another year from it by painting but eventually they started blowing holes all over the place.
Sooner or later you'll end up sticking stainless ones on there. I do like mine, a good investment if you're expecting to keep the bike and well worth it. About £150 from Motad.
You've already ahead of the game if you got the old ones off without snapping studs! Lots of copper grease when they go back on.
