Can I use bottom paint ( anti-fouling ) on Stainless Steel Trim Tabs, or do i need to use the special outdrive paint ? The outdrive paint doesn't work very well ( marine growth is always on it ) and since the tabs are stainless steel can bottom paint be used ?

Is it neccasary to use zincs on the tabs ? I put zincs on 2 seasons ago and they still have not yet eroded , just worn down by water and time.

Boat is in saltwater from may-oct

thanks all

Bob
