protects what kind of fiberglass from what did you say?
huh? zincs and/or soapy water protect a fiberglass boat from sal****er? Since when? Zincs protect against galvanic corrosion, which is more of a problem in salt water than fresh. Also, clean never hurts. Tom of the Swee****er Sea |

We were talking about a fiberglass *boat*, which includes certain metal underwater parts, e.g. propeller, through-hulls, rudder shaft etc. You are correct, the zincs don't protect the fiberglass itself. It will protect the boat. The biggest danger to the fiberglass parts, other than collision, is probably UV sunlight. The wax will help protect that. Washing will remove salt (corrosive) and, properly done, protect the wax. OK? Tom of the Swee****er Sea |
