Clean and polish it to the level that you like and then rinse it in acetone and spray a coat of clear lacquer over it and it will greatly reduce the tarnishing!!!

I am tempted as I'm a big proponent of clear coat, both normal and high temp. Though when it eventually breaks down you've got a big job on your hands using paint stripper to get it off.
