Rust on Screw in Roof Gulleys

[iamchucky]

Hi All

On cleaning our Cali (Reg March 16) before our last holiday I looked in the roof gulleys and took one of the black plastic caps off at the front (They just clip off) . Underneath I noticed that the screw was starting to show Rust (See attached).

Any others got the same? - Cali has rarely been packed away wet and if it has then always dried out when we got home. Guess some water may have settled under the cap? Any other thoughts and should I be concerned?

It's in for service in the next month and so will speak to garage about it then.

Some others have reported this before .
Mine also showing some rust , not only this also the smaler ones .
But now got me thinking , should there not be a cover on top ....have to check when roof is next time.

Just spray them with ACF50. Will stop it dead.

That good eh? Heard about ACF50 but was always sceptical, but a recommendation coming from one with such credentials.....? I will invest. Thanks WG.
