Chassis condensation

[robodoc]

I recently went to the storage center and noticed the wheels were covered with condensation water. The metal was cool and the air humid, so I wiped it off and didn't think much more about it. A week or two later, I was inspecting the paint (applying Liquid Glass) and I looked under the coach. The entire under carriage and the chassis components were covered to the point of dripping with condensation. The concrete floor is dry and the storage building doesn't leak. Has anyone else noticed this? Is it not hard on the chassis components? How can I prevent it?

Thanks for the advice in advance.

What you are getting is normal when warm high humidity air comes in contact with a relatively cold metal surface. Some fans might help to move the air around. Climate controlled storage would also work. Or how about a HUGE zip lock baggie. I get the same problem on my garage floor when the conditions and time of year are just right. The water would actually puddle on the floor.

This can easily happen after a cool night when all of the metal and such gets cold. Next morning when the warmer and humid air hits the cold metal...condensation. This is because the metal temperature is below the dew point temperature of the air. Fans can help to keep the air circulating and bring up the surface temperature.
