I've also tried the Rustoleum zinc spray the last few years because I don't know what else to try. Like everyone else, I found it doesn't work
all that well. The wax idea sounds good.
For the topsides, I've been using Jescar Power Lock instead of wax. It's a polymer sealant and is supposed to be more durable
than wax. I think I'll try that on the metal underwater gear. Who knows? It can't be any worse that the zinc spray.
