CORROSION PROTECTION FOR BOAT TRAILERS

For quite some time now we have been trialling various products to extend the life of our boat trailers by protecting the galvanising from premature decay. Salt water is saturated with chlorides that attack the galvanised coating. Thorough washing with an automotive wash and wax each time after use will also achieve a greater life for the galvanised coating but in reality this is rarely done. Painting or powder coating of chassis and components is very effective for the outside of a trailer but considerably more expensive.

Some of the products that we trialled worked extremely well but mostly they had an adverse effect on the environment, although seemingly minimal for one trailer a cumulative effect could be substantial. Other inert products trialled were again effective but hugely expensive.

We have now sourced and trialled a product that ticks all of the boxes. Product attributes include;

• MPI approved C11 (All animal product except dairy)
• Non- toxic, no harmful residues, no effect on marine lif
• Can be applied over rubber, neoprene, plastics Perspex, glass, paint, gel-coat and a multitude of other substrates.
•  It will prevent oxidisation of aluminium and marine fittings
• Acts as a water repellent on electrical and electronic componentry.
• Does not dry hard or become sticky.
• Can be applied to used boat trailers for extended serviceable life

Requires minimal customer applied coating maintenance post treatment, 6 to 12 month intervals.

This same product is used extensively by the military, the aviation industry and in the commercial fishing industry

We are now offering this treatment on our trailers before they leave the factory and for trailers currently in use that are still in good condition and worth saving. Pricing is as follows;

All pricing includes GST.  Maintenance periods are between 6 and 12 months depending on use. 

CorrosionX is an amazing product and suitable for a wide range of applications as a lubricant, corrosion inhibitor and water repellent for but not limited to; fishing reels, door hardware, locks, window hinges, marine engine components, winches and electrical equipment.

CorrosionX can be purchased here on line in 12oz and 16oz HD cans and couriered to your door. Bulk purchases of this product can also be arranged directly by phone or email.

Life expectancy of your treated trailer can theoretically be exponential given regular coating maintenance. Because the life of the protective coating is governed by how well it is maintained we cannot give a life span guarantee. We can however guarantee that this will at the very least, double the life of your trailer if the CorrosionX coating is maintained.
