Materials & Construction
This 16 oz marine-grade polish uses bonding polymers to seal aluminum surfaces, creating a protective barrier that resists dirt, stains, and UV-related dulling while restoring shine.
Product Description
Why you'll want it
- Helps aluminum look bright. The polish is made for aluminum on boats and other equipment. The record says it is specific to aluminum, so it is built for that job.
- Adds a shield against grime and sun. The polish forms a layer that blocks dirt, stains and UV rays. Its special polymers bond to the treated spot and seal it.
- Lifts white marks from hull cleaner. Hull cleaner that is not fully rinsed off can leave white marks. The text says this polish is very effective at removing them.
- Fall is a good time to seal aluminum. Cleaning and sealing aluminum before winter gets the job done while you have time, so the boat is ready when you launch in spring.
What it is
Star brite Ultimate Aluminum Polish is a 16 oz bottle of marine grade polish from Star brite. The product text says it is formulated for aluminum surfaces on boats and other equipment. Its special polymers bond to the treated areas.
How to use it
- Dirty or stained aluminum comes first: use the Star brite Ultimate Aluminum Cleaner/Restorer before polishing.
- Wash the area you plan to polish to take off grime and dirt.
- Shake the bottle well.
- Spread the polish with a clean, dry cloth. Move in small circles that overlap so the coverage is even.
- Keep rubbing. Add more polish to the cloth whenever it runs dry, since the polish works while still wet.
- Color on the cloth means oxidation or dead paint is coming off. Shake the cloth clean or swap it out so you do not rub it back into the surface.
- Chalky, oxidized areas may need a repeat of this step.
- Once the finish hazes over as it dries, buff the spot with a soft cloth that is dry.
What else the job needs
Good to have on hand: the Star brite Ultimate Aluminum Cleaner/Restorer, which the text says to use first on dirty or stained aluminum. A soft cloth, dry, for the buffing step.
