  • Hello from Houston

    What a great resource. I am glad to find this place. I was looking for information on restoring a trailers skin panels, and stumbled upon the forums. If anyone has experience waxing/ heavy oxidation removal on aluminum skinned trailers I could use some help. Baked on enamal finish I believe and I have heard horror stories about using a buffer on it "burns easily"

    Here is what I was thinking

    Megs #83 applied with foam pad, with variable speed Dewalt 1000-3000 rpm. Very light pressure and lowest setting on the buffer.

    Removal by hand with microfiber 3m.

    Finish with Hi-Tech #26 same methods of application and removal/ even thinking of hand application for this process.

    What do you think?

      Hello,

      Are you restoring bare aluminum panels or painted aluminum? (i.e Airstream vs conventional trailer)
