coyote Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 What is a way to prevent rust from getting on your stand door hinges. I know it's going to happen sooner or later. But what can be done to slow it down such as some kind of coating. I can always get new hinges to replace them when needed but the sump in the red sea stands are so tight to one of the hinges. Any info is appreciated. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oregonic Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I have a red sea stand with a hinge that needs to be replaced. I got about 3.5 years out of it by lightly coating in vaseline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateDawg Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I'm not sure about the red sea stand hinges but if they are bare metal like mine were, I took some rustoleum spray paint and gave the hinges a good couple coats on all the parts of the hinge then took some bearing grease and coated everything that rubbed or moved in the hinge with a thick layer of the stuff. I've had those hinges for 6 years and they don't have a bit of rust on them except for the one little scratch I made on one of them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
