[QUOTE="Bob Landry, post: 227884, member: 7025"] WD-40 is best when used as a penetrating oil. It doesn't do much for rust prevention as it evaporates fairly quickly and doesn't leave much of a residue. About the best stuff I've found is Corrosion-X, comes in a red can and is sold in many places including Academy. I too am lookng at replacing a TM on a boat that was used in salt water, and just about choke when I look at the price tag. I think with diligent rinsing and oiling a standard TM could be made to last several years, but you may have to go as far as actually doing some disassembly and spraying it down with rust inhibitor.
