Haven't went too well with the weekly updates lately, but today I put them back in the saltwater after several weeks of both rain and sunshine.
As usual I'm mostly commenting on the bare metal pieces: uncoated is the most damaged and has somehow even picked up a dent. It's got hard black oxidation on the surface with loose orange rust over that. Motor oil has only got the orange stuff. Linseed oil has it's own thing going on and seems the least damaged to me. The metal under the tar is still completely rust free, even at the edges of the holes I made in the tar layer in the last update.
The saltwater haven't gotten through the paint yet, and I completely forgot to take a closer look at the rusty piece.
We'll see if I continue with the weekly updates or if I just update when something significant has happened. The second test is also coming, but I've got more important stuff going on with both my time and my money right now.
