[QUOTE="Spiff, post: 1111001, member: 404998"] Thank you all for your advice, the sea is very hard on paint and soon gets to the metal. The original powder coating on the two main brackets is no too bad, but I modified two other brackets, one as a third support near a window and another to hang a second dish off the main pole. All the bashing and bending removed a lot of the powder coating, my repaint job on those two did not last long. I can as suggested remove one of the three brackets at a time to repaint, but the best protection I have found down here is galvanising. The railings on our balcony have lasted for over 30 years and only now the ones nearest the sea have succumbed to the salt a bit. If I take them off one at a time to have them galvanised, they will require sand blasting first, which is going to be a lot of up and down to Helston. I am not sure how sand blasting is with rust, I suppose it depends on how bad it is ? Will take some pictures tomorrow. God Bless Spiff [/QUOTE]
