Sorry @amey missed this before. For prevention? I'm going to try plastidip around the potentially wet areas now I've had the frame powdercoated.
@tenderloin if you do get a Silvia I know them inside out now - they don't have many weak points really but the iron frame is one to watch out for.

Ah got you. Machine upgrade isn't on the agenda - if nothing else I'm not sure what I'd want, but I know it would be way more expensive than the Silvia we've had for four years (and cost £250 when we got it) and I don't have the budget at the moment.
I dropped the frame off at the powder coaters this morning - it's going to be RAL 2010 Signal Orange. Getting the removable 'colour' parts done from my Dualit kettle at the same time so they'll match 😊
