Default Engine protectant

I was told to spray CRC on my engine and all other components in the engine compartment. Or WD40 would do. I didn't like using the WD40 and I see CRC makes many different marine products.

Do you spray anthing to inhibit corrosion, and if so, what do you use?

I'm a WD40 guy. Why don't you like WD40? Tomorrow I'm going to celebrate 50 years of WD40

WD 40 is definatly good to use. But for the long cold winter try T9 Bowshield. It is not cheap at 7 or 8 bucks a can but it will stay on the engine all winter. It does leave a film but is easy to wipe off and the engine stays brand new. This product was designed for the aircraft industry.
