Outdrive prep w/ zinc chromate ?

Was wondering if using zinc chromate as primer on bare spots in inaccessible aluminum gimbal and transom mount areas would be a good idea to be followed by interlux primocon and trilux ?

On drive I can sand any bare aluminum shiny and go with straight primocon/trilux... Gimbal and mount impossible to get in to to sand... Thx

ZERO replies ? Hmmm..

If I find out anything, I'll let you know....

I bet Pelican would know. He seems to know I/O's really well.

This isn`t the Little Known Truth you know....someone will come along with real intel.

Just be patient as most of us run outboards

Aaahh... Grasshopper, but this is the the place for Little Known Truth.

Only in a rush 'cause it's time for us northerners to prep and get 'er in. I have a weekend with no wife, no kids. It's a luxury that I NEVER have. Yard work be damned !

So, one way or another, this bear of a job will get done - with or without Zinc Chromate.

I have a call into the manufacturer so if I hear anything, I will share the info...
