In preparation for Harvey I put my nearly completed fuse up on a table, resting on a piece of old brown carpet. While we did not get flood water in the garage nevertheless somehow moisture got between the carpet and underside of the fuse. This I discovered yesterday(so about 2 months) when taking it down in prep for prime/paint the interior. The carpet stained 2 approx 1 sq foot areas along with depositing some glue-like material. I have been able to remove the material deposits with acetone and lots of elbow grease and even more cussing. But the aluminum appears to be permanently stained a lite brown color. It will be painted so I don?t really care about the cosmetics but am concerned if I have compromised the integrity of the aluminum. I have put a thick layer of paste wax over the area to try to limit any further corrosion. I wish I could post pix and that?s something I?ll learn to do soon but in the meantime any thoughts are appreciated.
