Hi folks,
Regarding the 4130 galvanizing, you can pick up a bottle of "Extend"
from Home Depot for about 8 bucks. It will do at least 2 24-foot masts.
Just lightly go over the mast with some steel wool, then rub on the
Extend, give it a second coat, and voila! You're done. Turns it a rich
black with nice hard rust-proof coat.
Sorry, I can't tell you any more about the product than that.
