Ukuze uphephe amathuba okuba kubekho amabala okugcina amanzi, nceda ulandele imiyalelo:
1. Musa ukubeka izinto ezisandul’ ukwakhiwa nge-galvanized phezu kwezinye, kwaye ungazigcini kufutshane kakhulu
2. Gcina ngaphakathi ukuba kunokwenzeka, ngaphandle komhlaba nangaphandle kwethambeka
3. Qinisekisa ukuba kukho umoya omninzi ohamba ngokukhululekileyo kwindawo yokugcina izinto
4. Susa iplastiki okanye upakisho lwexeshana kwiimveliso ezigqunyiweyo xa sele zithuthiwe, njengoko upakisho lunokugcina okanye lugcine umswakama ngaphakathi.
5. Udaya lokugcina olumanzi kumphezulu ogqunywe nge-galvanized lunokucocwa, nangona kunjalo, inkqubo yahlukile kancinci ngokuxhomekeke kubukhali bedaya. Ngaphandle kokuba kufuneka ukucoca ngezizathu zobuhle, udaya lokugcina olumanzi oluthambileyo noluphakathi lunokuvezwa kumoya oqhelekileyo kwaye luyekwe kwimozulu. Oku kuya kuvumela idaya ukuba liguqukele kwi-zinc carbonate patina ekhuselayo. Ukuba umphezulu omdaka ucociwe, uphuhliso lwe-patina luya kuqala kwakhona kodwa, luya kubuyisela naluphi na ugqibelo olukhanyayo nolukhazimlayo lokuqala.
