The lifetime of these connector plates might be shorter than brand new ones.
So I'm wondering if there's a way to prevent them from getting worse.
Any method?
These plates were sprayed by corrosive chemical solution(similar to bleach) so they became like these.
Almost all truss connector plates of this one-year old house look like these pictures.
Is a repair required immediately to extend the longevity of the structure?
How to repair? With WD40?
Thanks.
Do you know how long it takes to develop from Zinc corrosion(white rust) to steel corrosion(brown rust) typically?

How to repair...
Yes. Mold remediation was conducted by spraying a mold remover solution(ingredient: Sodium hypochlorite, Sodium carbonate, Sodium hydroxide) on almost the whole house during framing one year ago. So almost all connector plates were also sprayed by that chemical.
That chemical has been left on...
Hello.
Do you think corrosion is happening on these galvanized steel plates with a low level corrosion resistant coating (G90)?
They were sprayed by a solution(Sodium hypochlorite, Sodium carbonate, Sodium hydroxide) one year ago.
(The surface was shiny before the spray.)
Thanks.

The truss system is one year old.
The connector plates have a low level corrosion resistant coating (G90)
Thanks.
