Perhaps I should have gotten the dull finish dipped galvanized bolts instead 
Any input on this is appreciated; as I’ve removed some bolts to install longer or shorter ones & noticed the rust/corrosion on the shanks 
Thanks  |
You'll want the galvanized. The treated lumber will corrode the other, as you're already seeing.
