making an outdoor piece and wondered what the black cabinet screws are coated with and if they are suitable for outdoors
had some shiny green coated screws on hand and used those as they were separated from their original box was unsure if they were an outdoor coating but i think they were
but i wonder if there are any simple tricks to test for different coatings that anyone has
maybe a vinegar test would do
black {iron} oxide Yes as long as you don't mind rust
Just use bronze - not brass - or stainless steel. Galvanized is OK too but hot dipped galvanized fasteners have become scarce.
i did not use these
i have some screws that look galvanized not sure if they are hot dipped
ended up using what look like powder coated screws some green some gray
a few stainless or what looked like stainless
FWIW, galvanized is getting hard to come by. Galvanizing doesn't work and play well with "environmentally-friendly" pressure treat so they have gone to other coatings.
