Cleaning Aluminum Hull?

[SlimeTime]

I'd like to "restore" the finish of the outside of the hull on my new project. Anything anyone used that removes stains & adds alittle shine & protection ?

Thanks!

That looks good! I hate buying stuff off the internet, was hoping to find something local. I may hit a Auto Parts store tomorrow & see what they've got.

i bought that toon brite stuff anf began to use it, it does take off a great deal of the grime on the boat, after that i used steel wool with polishing compound and then a electric buffer with more polishing compound, shined up nice, i finished a small corner and have to finish the rest of the boat, ill post some pics when i all done.

I thought about diong all that but it doesn't last and I'm either fishing or at work wishin' I was fishin'. I don't have time for all that polishing and buffing. Maybe if I decide to sell the boat.
