Default Antenna "chalking" ?

Hi, i have a 2/70 verticle that is "chalking" on the outside of the
white section. I think this is the right term for it. If you grab it
white powdery remnants stay on your hands or clothes. How do you go
about fixing this? Wash with soap and water then spray enamel on it maybe?

Thanks for any input...

yeah, maybe a light sanding also... but assuming its fiberglass be sure to
take care to not get the dust where you don't want to itch.
