48yrs ago we bought a rotary clothes line, which was made from galvanised steel.
I’ve painted it a couple of times with Galvafroid and the line has been replaced a few times too but the other day it finally gave up the ghost.
I don’t think I’ve had anything that’s lasted that long especially as it’s spent it’s life outside in all weathers.
Somehow I don’t think it’s modern replacement will last that long.
