Michael, Great write up on the subject :) My DD gets a full wash including the underside once a month.

Did you notice the white Pagoda for sale for under 10K will make someone a nice project.

The greatest ally - fish oil !!!

I used litres of it during my resto......but then we are lucky down under, no salt on the roads here (just lots of it in the air....depending on how close to the coast you are)
