Red Oak shelves

I cut some nice 1x14" oak boards and made some fairly nice
shelves for my saws. After about two weeks the bottoms and where
paint is missing is white with corrosion, tannic acid I was
told. Guess I should've used the big pine boards I had cut, just
wasn't thinking. Sometimes I think I'm eat up with the dumba**

late to the party /I used some red oak ,air dried for about 8
years for shelves above my lathes .Talk about heavy .I could
stack engine blocks on that stuff I do believe .Because they are
in a machine shop I saw no reason to get fancy with paint or
sealant .
In my pile of rough sawn hardwood I have some 16 foot by 1 by
12 red oak planks .I can't hardly lift the things .
