All,

Anyone have any experience with a product called CorrosionX for treating saltwater rods and/or reels? Good? Bad? Indifferent?

Thanks.

I used it for awhile, without any negative results, but was worried about long term effects on lines and the (aluminum) equipment in general. I had no basis for such worries, but I did. I figured I could accomplish the same thing with soap and warm water. I ultimately discarded the whole gallon.

I wouldn't dare put it one of my good reels. To me fresh water and VERY, VERY, VERY, light oil. Rocket oil pretty expensive but is a good choice. I am not saying that CX would hurt anything but solvents will destroy a reel.............Just my opinion now...............Thanks guys.............

Red label Corrosion X is a great product. Will not harm your reels.. Have used the same bottle since the 90's - you don't need much..

Sorry guys - I read "Corrosion-X" but my brain saw "Salt-X".
I discarded the Salt-X.
Bauer Reels supplies Corrosion-X with all their reels. No problem using.

I use the stuff on everything. I spray almost every component under the cowling with it and all still looks new. Trailer Hubs, gears on the winch, stereo connections, anything metal that might touch salt coul benefit from it. Oh, and reels it works too.
