Challenger 180 Jet pump maintenance and cleaning

Hello everybody,

I was doing my bearing grease checking on my 2007 challenger 180 jet pump, and I removed reverse, venturi etc...
I noticed lots of spot with starting corrosion even if anodes are still brand new and the boat only knows unsalted water...the heat exchanger plate is covered with small shellfishes which is not good for hydrodynamics I guess !

I would have questions on how to treat the corrosion:
is there a liquid/detergent you can use to sink the parts in and deeply remove the oxydation ?

I already removed and sanded the wider spots that are affected but what would be the right choice of primer and/or paint to use to protect those parts again ?

Besides is there a trick to remove those little shellfishes avoiding rubbing for hours ?


I join pictures of my parts for a better view

thanks in advance
