Stainless Steel

 

 
Stainless steel is used for bow rails and deck fittings on your Pro-Line.  Stainless steel is not completely free from 
corrosion attack.  It is NOT stain or rust proof.  When used in contact with chloride salts, sulfides or other rusting 
metals, stainless will discolor, rust or even corrode.  The degree of surface oxidation is directly affected by local 
atmosphere and saltwater concentrations.  All metals are subject to corrosion in some environments.  The grain 
structure of stainless, when modified by welding processes, has increased susceptibility to micro-corrosion 
(invisible to the unaided eye) and cracking. 
 
Our most helpful recommendation is that you give your stainless steel hardware the same attention that you 
would use to maintain other materials on your boat.  Regular fresh-water washing with a mild abrasive cleaner will 
keep your stainless bright and beautiful. 
 

• 

Always clean stainless frequently with soap and water.  Any cleaner safe for glass is usually safe 
for stainless 

• 

Always remove rust spots as soon as possible with a stainless, brass, silver or chrome cleaner.  
Irreversible pitting will develop under rust that remains on stainless for any period of time. 

• 

Always use a cleaner, like a good car wax, for added beauty and protection. 

• 

Never use coarse abrasives like sandpaper or steel wool on stainless as these can cause rusting. 

• 

Never clean with acids or bleaches.

 

• 

Never leave stainless in contact with iron, steel or other metals, which cause contamination 
leading to rust or corrosion. 

• 

Always protect with a wax, especially around welds to guard against micro-corrosion, cracking 
and rust spots. 

 
Additional information from Romac and G. G. Schmitt and Sons is included in your owner’s package. 
 
 

Corrosion Protection 

 
Spray all electrical connections with a good quality corrosion guard annually and whenever an electrical 
connection is repaired or replaced. 
 
If you moor your Pro-Line in salt water for extended periods, be sure to check the transom mounted anti-corrosion 
anode often for operation.  Check the electrical connections (green wire) on all metallic fittings with anode for 
conductivity with an ohmmeter.  Make sure the anode surface is exposed and not caked with corrosion and scale.  
Renew the anode if it is more than 50% eroded.  Your motor and/or drive unit have a sacrificial zinc anode to 
mitigate the effects of electrolysis which causes corrosion.  Maintain this anode in accordance with the 
maintenance schedule in your engine manual. 
 
 

Windshield 

 
The windshield is made of Plexiglass.  To clean the windshield: 
 

• 

Rinse with fresh water to remove as much grime as possible 

• 

Do not grind dirt, soil, saltwater residue, etc. into the windshield, as this will permanently damage 
the windshield. 

• 

If further cleaning is required, the windshield manufacturer recommends cleaning the windshield 
with a mild soap (preferably Ivory liquid soap), lukewarm water and a soft cloth.  Make sure that 
there is no cross contamination on the cloth.  Allow the windshield to air dry.  If you feel that you 
must dry the windshield, use only a very very soft cloth.
