Anchor Corrosion Control

Post by Frank Vernet »

Members of the Board:

I have a 35lb CQR anchor that is suffering the effects of corrosion (a little deeper than mere surface rust). I plan on wire brushing the offending corrosion down to clean metal and wondered if anyone has applied a corrosion retardant material (eg. paint, or...) to their anchor(s) and with what success.

I can't seem to find a product specific to this issue at any of the usual retailer web sites. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
