Salt Removal critical for Preventing Marine Corrosion
Every year $heaps of marine motor components is destroyed by salt corrosion. The salt water boating environment with constant salt water spray, salty winds & salt water contact is tough for any equipment to combat. Effective salt removal is critical if you are going to hang onto your boat for the long haul.
Salt is tenacious in its ability to stick to surfaces, combine this with its hydroscopic nature and it doesn’t matter how dilligent you are in trying to get rid of it, a percentage is still left behind to continue a salt corrosion areas which will end up erroding what ever gear it has stuck to. So comprehensive salt removal is essential, otherwise your precious boat, plus if you love fishing, your much loved game fishing reels will fail during the catch of a life-time. Even your hooks & lures will suffer, quietly rotting away, then the is your expensive marine electronics!.
Much of the salt corrosion goes on beyond our view, your diligent cleaning with fresh water often flushes salt into nooks and crannies that are out of view. Now the salt starts its corrosive cycle, quietly dissolving the metals it is in contact with.
So what is the answer to salt removal?
The key to effective salt removal is salt neutralisation; making the salt inert so it has no reactivity and removing the salt crystals that can lock up rigging, winches and fishing reels. This is best done with powerful salt neutralising solutions, that react with the salt coating your equipment, chemically changing it to stop the salt’s corrosive nature.
The most powerful products for doing this is Salt-X SX50 & Buster 50, they are economic and, highly concentrated and neutralize salt virtually on contact. SX50 & Buster 50 have the ability to penetrate deep into cracks and crevices de-naturing the salt hiding there and arresting the salt corrosion cycle. A bonus is the coating that is left once SX50 & Buster 50 have air dried. This provides the surface with enhanced protection and makes salt removal faster next time round. It also leaves important lubricants intact, unlike other solvent based products!
So if you are committed to removing salt from your deck gear, start using SX50 & Buster 50 and halt the salt corrosion that is quietly degrading your investment.
