Living in a high-humidity area definitely presents challenges when it comes to maintaining gear with moving parts.I'm curious what specific strategies people use to combat rust and corrosion, especially on smaller, more intricate gear systems. I've had decent luck with regular applications of a light oil, like Rem Oil, on things like bicycle derailleurs and fishing reels, but I'm constantly battling the elements.
Are there any specific types of lubricants that perform better in consistently humid environments? I've heard some people swear by dry lubes to avoid attracting moisture and grime, but my experience with those has been mixed.Also,what about long-term storage? Do you recommend vacuum sealing or desiccant packs for items that won't be used frequently? any advice on pre-emptive measures besides just cleaning and lubricating would be greatly appreciated.
