I know it dosent evaporate in large quantities but the sodium does transfer in small quantities with the water atoms. and when you have an enclosed space with very high humidity from huge amounts of salt water you do get salt on your driveway, so to say... Every bolt in our new building will be stainless or nickle plated, and they will still show signs of rust, garage doors need to be striped of bolts and replaced with stainless hardware or they fall apart within a year. only coated screws can be used, or stainless, or they fail quickly if under load, I have witnessed this first hand. Also I have been told by a profesional botanist that some tropicals do very poorly with salt water humidity, thats why you only see certain varities of plant life on coast lines, some tolerate it more than others. If salt dosent transfer how do we get salt creep on our fishroom windows that are 5 feet away from the tanks... the salt can clog the pores on some plant leaves, killing them, or burning them
