sticky annex poles
« on: July 04, 2012, 04:24:59 PM »
 With all this liquid sunshine in Vic my annex poles are getting some kind of calcium build on the inner poles. Thinking of fish oil??
Any ideas?

I personally prefer Lanotec for these sorts of purposes. Used all the time in the Cairns humidity with excellent results....

Marine CRC (which leaves a very light oil film against normal CRC) is another option.

Dry lube or Teflon spray.
no sticky residue left over to collect dirt or grit and wont make hands or canvas dirty.
