    Hi there, I know this topic has been discussed extensively on this site. I am in Duluth MN, and there are not many options in this area that offer rust proofing, one shop I found offers NH oil and that would need to be done yearly and it is $300 a application. Would you guys pay that yearly to get it done? Does anyone have any other options for shops in my area, or Minneapolis? Thanks for your time.

    And it should be $300 once and lifetime warranty with annual touchups. That place is too much

    Looks like you have little to no option but to do it yourself. Either buy the sprayer kit or get the rattle cans.

    Once a year, right before winter. Im in calgary with the salt as well. It will be inly as good as hiw much area yoi can apply. The pros will get every inch, inside out, but this is better than nothing. Im gonna pressure wash the dirt and gunk off before i apply another coat this fall

    Yep, pretty much the go-to in former AO for salt water jet skis.
