I used copperslip but have also heard people using waxoil.

I used copper slip too. Motorbike chain wax is recommended though.

But if they are valuable ones, get a set of shock socks to keep them dirt and moisture free!

skint now , payed a fortune for good coilovers

I put a big thick tonne of it on - all the dirt on the road sticks to it though! eBay used to have tones of coil over covers on there. They're only simple bits of plastic/nylon/polyester sheet - but it would keep the grit from sticking!

And come MOT time, most testers think the shocks are leaking because they're covered in black crud.
