Aluminium protection from salt.
I have some basic, cheap, aluminium panniers which work well for me. What I have noticed is how quickly salt seems to attack them in even the smallest amounts. So I'm thinking of covering them with something like clear varnish / lacquer or paint?. Previous experience has shown me that that sort of thing don't stick too well on bare bright ( cheap) aluminium.
Anyone done something similar using easily available stuff from diy stores that can be done in the garden shed ? Or any better ideas other than take them off!
