[QUOTE="Douglasdzaster, post: 498436, member: 27803"] I’m all freshwater here but I’ve been using Fluid film and it works. I’ve wondered if the Corrosion X is better or not quite as messy. When I got the boat to rebuild it had corrosion issues. The outboard had a few spots as well on the head. I cleaned the connectors then sprayed gunk on the outboard and hosed it off (with carburetors protected). Fine cleaned it with rigs and Q tips in the tight spots. Then sprayed the whole power head with Fluid film. It looked new as well as freed up a few bolts over time that I had tried to check torque on. Stopped the corrosion (I need to paint those spots but Yamaha blue is a little pricey) With the cowling and the boat cover it lasted almost a year before I started seeing a little grime sticking to the Fluid film. So I just did it again. I’m currently out of Fluid film and will get some Corrosion X to try. They even have an aviation formula that’s really supposed to do good on aluminum and electrical. I sprayed the leaf springs on my trailer too and they look new but I don’t care how long the Fluid Film sets if you touch it it’s messy. [/QUOTE]
