We live in Florida, and the salt content in the air is enough to corrode exposed metal objects in the coastal areas. If salt air can effectively corrode metal, there's sufficient salt exposure from the Procyon to corrode the metal components of a CRB machine.
I thoroughly agree with what Rick has said here, & appreciate his honesty in bringing it to all of our attention.
As a comparison, I service an elite harbor side apartment complex regularly.
According to one resident, I applied a fabric protector to their upholstery over 7 years ago, the upholstery is still in perfect condition as they only use the apartment when they come here for a week every couple of months.
However, all the stainless steel legs on the dining chairs have corroded badly due to the salt in the air.
This apartment is 11 floors above ground level which is also another 2-3 floors above sea level.
Closer inspection of their apartment showed damage to all metal surfaces in the apartment.
This apartment, naturally, is always secured with all doors and windows closed whenever they are absent, and also most times when they are there with a/c on.
Thanks for reminding me & others, of the corrosive effects of salt in the air Rick.
I don't regret my past, I just regret the times I've wasted with the wrong people.
Take me as I am, or watch me as I go.
I'll retire when I can no longer do what I love, or I no longer love what I can do.
Stop moving, start dying........
