I'm waiting for the shrinkwrap guy to show up this week. Wrapping the exhaust after the motor drains is part of the winterizing process. I've got to spend a few minutes removing the rust from the prop and repainting it. One of these days I'll find a prop paint that actually stays on the blade tips. :) Why paint a stainless prop? Surface rust on 304 SS is normal ... if you don't boat a lot. It really isn't hurting anything. If I am out of town for a few weeks and not boating I see a little on mine. It buffs right off after an hour or so of running Yeah, it does come right off while running. I never gave it much thought. But I'll still clean it off and coat the prop before the shrinkwrapper arrives. Actually, coating stainless promotes rust. Stainless loses it's rust resistant properties when deprived of oxygen. Hmmm. Okay...I'll clean it off and not coat it! I guess that is why I have never seen people paint their SS props. Most people are smart enough not to paint them. I am glad you learned something in this post. You get to do your normal trolling (the real reason you come here) and you inadvertently actually learned something. |

I really am glad he took that photo, I guess he though everyone wanted to look at his rear end. Little did he know he shows it daily in almost everyone of his posts. |
