Got hair dryer out to speed up the drying time
This how it looks after a few washes and brush speckling
Big closeup
I leave it as it is ,
It will be weathered more and it will get a nice crust of barnacles .
I have read that they tend to live in shallow and tidal waters and start to appear within a week on boats,
so a nice thick crust it will be .

Maarten , once again fantastic work !!!
As far as rust goes within a week those bulkheads would have a fine patina of rust and be encrusted within a year .
It always amazed me how contractors would install metal outside light fixtures on rich folks homes being built right on the beach .
The contractors would always warn the homeowners that this was not a good idea and that plastic or pvc fixtures would be better .
The homeowners would be outraged because there would be no cheap plastic fixtures anywhere on their multi-million dollar home .
Within a year the fixtures would be rusted hulks dripping down the side of the house ruining the fixture the wiring and the siding .
How do people get to be multi-millionaires and have absolutely no common sense ?
Just some thoughts from someone living on the unforgiving Atlantic Ocean .
