  • My first time using aluminum brightener and it worked great. HUGE difference in this diamond plate aluminum fuel tank/ tool box. Not brand new but for 10 mins of work pretty dang happy with the outcome

    The bottle also says don't use on polished aluminum. If you're looking to maintain the polished look, then following that is a good idea. If all you're looking to do is clean, then it's whatever floats your goat. A diesel tank and tool box probably doesn't need to be blinding on a sunny day. It just needs to work.

      Yep worked great for this application. The goal was consistency, so it's not all splotchy not being super polished is ok. We've got a chrome polishing guy for that. I don't know of anything that will clean and polish without having to buff etc. But this did a great job all around

      It wasn’t too bad but there was definitely a noticeable difference! It’s not going to make it super shiny that would require hand polishing.

      Oh yea I bet it worked good on those. This is my first time and I’ve always heard the term “alumabrite” but found this at Napa and it seems to work just fine. I was surprised to be honest.

    Look up heavy metal polish by chemical guys we polish all our diamond plate with it and it works fast. After you clean with the brightener dry it off and heavy metal polish makes it chrome again in no time.

      I used to use a product for whitening trailers and parts. I believe it was AC77, it would bleach great. Then I usually used mothers polish if the customer wanted the mirror finish. White as a sheet of paper or shiny as mirror. Looks like this stuff does ok. For flatbeds and coal haulers I used a pump spray bottle for mass application by the way.

    Maybe letting it set for just 30 seconds would solve the hazing, "weird look" problem on the front side. It is acid, after all.

    DONT USE STEEL wire brushes or steel wool on aluminum…!!!!
    Dis-similar metals in contact with each other cause “ electrolysis”…aka corrosion..
    If you need to “brush” aluminum… use brass brushes…or the fiber brush wheels..
    Does anyone have experience with this stuff on motorcycles.
    I inherited my dads NEARLY IMMACULATE 2003 Harley Sportster…
    And I live near the Atlantic … so humidity and salt air are the enemies…
    Can this be SAFELY USED on a motorcycle engine?
    Will this ( overspray or splash)…damage/ harm the other parts of the bike… paint on tank and fenders… rubber… leather… plastics…?
    Comments from experienced craftspeople are highly appreciated
    Thx
