Corrosion on shelf queens

Post by paul1600 »

Hi i'm getting corrosion on my Yokomo shelve queens magnesium parts, what could be doing this as they have been in cabinets for years & only just noticed the other day the corrosion. Any help with stopping this would be appreciated.

Best thing to do is take them apart and glass bead blast them then coat them with a clear coat spray.
