the blades look to have pits in the spray paint vs a corrosion problem, but it is hard to tell from a photo. Once you sand it should be obvious.

Hi all - OP here...the white residue was cold galvanizing high zinc spray. I sanded it off back to the bronze and the prop looked in pretty good shape. A few minor spots here and there but over all the condition was good. Re-sprayed for the season and greased. We'll see if it does its job and prevents barnicle growth this summer. And I just put one zinc on.
