Gear: SALT-AWAY corrosion inhibitor

Protect your boat’s surfaces and engine internals with this tried-and-trusted American-made salt inhibitor

If left unchecked, corrosion from salt water will soon lead to serious deterioration of marine surfaces and engines, so it pays to get on the front foot with a trusted salt-inhibiting treatment such as SALT-AWAY.

The ravages of the harsh marine environment take their toll and, as any boat owner will attest, the rust and corrosion associated with salt water will eventually ruin untreated marine surfaces, not to mention engine and gearing internals.

That’s where SALT-AWAY steps into the picture.

The maker behind this non-toxic and biodegradable salt inhibitor says SALT-AWAY’s formulation both expels salt and protects against its long-term effects.

Formulated and manufactured in the USA, simply spray SALT-AWAY on surfaces where salt has accumulated to break down build-up and allow easy rinsing and protection of the surface.

The product can also be used as an engine flush for both inboard and outboard marine engines, including personal watercraft (PWC) engines. SALT-AWAY provides internal protection by removing all traces of salt while being safe for all metal, rubber, and plastic components, its maker says.

Available in a 473mL surface spray (RRP $29.95) or in 946mL (RRP $44.99) or 3.79L (RRP $114.95) concentrate (refill) containers, 1L of SALT-AWAY is said to make 500L of salt inhibitor.

Meanwhile, the exclusive SALT-AWAY 177mL Mixer Tool (RRP $59.95) is the required SALT-AWAY delivery system for most engine flushes and pressure washes. Also designed and manufactured in the US, the tool has a three-position valve and can handle water pressures of up to 60psi.

SALT-AWAY is available from all good marine dealers and parts stockists nationwide.
