are there any imperfections in the surface of the forks? whereby oil could be allowed past the seals when the forks are moving up and down.

it'd also be worth changing the seals while its apart, get them for a few quid from the same place you got the oil from probably.

give these a bell, they resealed my forks on the srad a few years ago and made a nice job, sure they'll dish out a bit advice over the phone
