    dwightparks, thanks, I will check this out. The spot I cleaned with this stuff looks bad now unless I can get it shined back up. Looks like I had an Acid spill on the surface.

    Plenty of how-to videos on YouTube.

    Mr Clean magic eraser does a great job getting the water scum off. I use them on my Bass Tracker.

    I use Star brite to clean my aluminum boat. I love how it’s designed for easy application because of its sprayer. I’m not a fan of cheap products as most of them can’t achieve what I want. With this cleaner, I don’t have to worry about mixture ratio and dilution.

    The aluminum once cleaned won't last very long unless you put a clearcoat finish over it.
    There are ones made just for aluminum boats.
