Aluminum corrodes much much differently than steel ... and usually once the surface corrodes, the corrosion forms a barrier protecting the rest. Of course, caustic fluids (like the acid in sweat) can cut through ....

If you aren't near the ocean the humidity shouldn't be an issue. If you are the salt will be an issue.
