I'm going to replace the faucets in my galley and 2 heads. I did this
12 years ago and they look bad again, especially the 2 in the lav
sinks in the heads - corroded, pitted.

Any idea how the colored (painted?) units hold up in a salt water
boat. Thick chrome on brass lasts well, but bathroom faucets seems to
be made of junk metal.

I will not buy expensive "marine" faucets - just good quality home
units from Delta, Moen, whatever.


As with anything, you get what you pay for. Just looked in a marine
catalog and found chrome-on-brass (4, 6 & 8" centers) for $21-$36, which
is about what I'd expect to pay for similar quality from the hardware store.
