I just take them apart and clean them once a year and they never have any damage or build up from the salt use.

All of my reels are LEWs except one and I love them. I have some ranging from $20 used E-bay finds to a 1 year old BB2 In-shore and a few TP's . I only use the In-shore in salt and it has the rinse feature that allows you to run water through it and wash it out. The handles are really nice, it's a freakin winch ! No problems with < 24" reds or anything else large. Smooth enough to through lures that aren't huge and holds alot of line.
