Cheap trailer axle rustproofing????
I know, I know. Why don't you do it the right way up front and save a
bundle? Well, this is one of those get out of a deal as cheaply as possible and start over. I need to replace the old (ungalvanized steel) axle on my father in law's boat trailer so we can sell it ( with full disclosure of its condition) and possibly start over. The old one lasted many years without even being rinsed off with fresh water after each use. Will saturating the replacement axle, springs, u-bolts, spring hangers, etc. with LPS 3 or something similar be worth the efffort? We would like it to last the next owner longer if possible. Any other product that might help? No , we don't expect the same longevity as hot galvanizing. Would using Rob White's heat the thing up and spray it while hot and then let it cool method get the protectant any deeper into the spring stack? Thanks , Richard " Trying to help the dad in law get through with his boat project" |
