I've just bought some "RubberizeIt" paint - a form of liquid rubber .
I've got frame made out of aluminium, but stupidly used stainless steel brackets for riveting it all together (didn't think about galvanic corrosion at the time). The paint is supposed to be aquatic friendly, so I'll post a little bit more about it in this thread once I've had a chance to use it properly. I've currently got 3 coats on the underside of the frame, but it needs a bit more work.
I'm impressed with it so far, but if anyone else has used this or has some tips then please do let me know . It doesn't look like rubber paint is common in the UK, although I found lots of the stuff in the USA when searching for it.
Will post more with photos once I've made some progress .
