No Tim, I treat water like acid. I figure the old gal has seen enough water and mud in her life time. I have gotten caught in the rain a few times when I was away from home.
Like I said, all I did is a quick wire brush one day and them rubbed in the paste. I never reapplyed it after the first time.
Still like to know just what's in it.
