[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3252558, member: 3099"] Parked finished are much tougher than they get credit for. What Gunbuffer said is very accurate. Parkerizing is a manganese phosphate coating but some use zinc phosphate. Manganese tend to be a bit darker. I had a 25' chain that was the excess cut off of a 2.5 ton jib crane hoist. I pre-cleaned and zinc phosphate coated it in the tanks we used to coat our tool joints (oilfield). As soon as it came out of the phosphate tank, I commenced to spraying it with the preservative oil that we used while it was still hot. That thing stayed in the bed of my truck for a good 3 years and only then started rusting lightly. [/QUOTE]
