reassemble the fork springs and cap. Wind away with allen key. if that fails, borrow a cheap impact gun for DIY work, the ones in the sets with the drills will usually do this easily, you dont need a proper impact socket gun.

Glad youre sorted. I never understand why the manuals tell you to take the spring out and use a special tool when doing it under pressure always works.

I leave bare and just keep wiping with acf
If you lacquer them corrosion will usually creep under the lacquer

Yeah, had that happen under lacquer.
I just polish them now, but it upsets the anoraks.
