Get you a couple scotch brite pads and you'll have her shined up in a jiffy. I think that works better than the acid, the bottle says temperature needs to be above 55 degrees. It seems like the cooler it is the longer you have to wait, bringing it to a stand still. Acid seems like alot of trouble to me, directions says cover trailer with plastic to protect paint. Also, acid will take off any of that black tarnish from aluminum but it won' take off any of the white chalky oxidation. Hope that helps, Bird.
