Dwight,
You can get spray zinc primer at CDN Tire....I have one, used it
once....it seemed to work but since I use my boat often, I don't use it
on the prop shaft and prop....don't see the need.

Where do you get “zinc paint”?

Here in Vancouver, my boat guru suggested zinc paint for the prop
and shaft. I wasn’t too sure but now I’ve seen several yards using
it. My prop and shaft come out of the water (yearly) without hard
growth on them. I’m sold.

First full season for me with my C&C 34 and I used Interlux
Micron CSC, as that’s what the previous owner ’thought’ was on it
when I bought it. A good friend has also used it on his Tartan
3700 for years with good results.
I used 2 to 3 coats after a light sanding of the previous coat(s)
and it has worked very well. Five months moored in the Northwest
Arm in Halifax NS and it was surprisingly super clean when it
came out at end of season… a little green scum in places but
that’s it! Stainless prop shaft was caked with barnacles and
growth, so I’m guessing bottom paint worked great where it was
applied!
Does anyone coat their stainless prop shaft (or brass folding
prop) with bottom paint?
