| Oct 7, 2022 at 17:30 | comment | added | Amogam | Can AC increase the oxidization of the hinges ? | |
| Oct 7, 2022 at 17:28 | comment | added | RMDman | You can try spray painting. However if the oxidizing fumes remain in the cabinet you will have the same result. There is no magic fix for that hinge. | |
| Oct 7, 2022 at 16:49 | comment | added | Amogam | Thanks.I will check again. But after removing the rust is there anything that I can apply on top of the hinge ? | |
| Oct 7, 2022 at 11:36 | comment | added | RMDman | You can wire brush off the rust. It will come back quickly until you remove the source of the oxidation. Again, what is stored in the cabinet, not in the room? | |
| Oct 6, 2022 at 19:19 | comment | added | Amogam | Is there anything I can do to get rid of the rust and treat the hinge to extend it's life ? | |
| Oct 6, 2022 at 17:46 | comment | added | Amogam | The room has Air conditioner other than that I don't see anything that can influence the oxidation. | |
