prwlyn Prowler Junkie Posts: 1668 From: Richmond, Texas USA Registered: JUL 2000	posted 09-07-2004 10:01 AM I'm wanting to get the pontoons on our Party Barge back to shiny, anyone have a suggestion as to a good cleaner to get the oxidation off without a ton of rubbing? I did find one product called "Toon-Brite" which says you just spray it on and rinse it off, anyone have experience with this product? Afterwards I don't mind polishing them up but getting them clean first is the bummer.. ------------------ Fred J. Henkel "Prowler is the Lord Of The Looks" http://www.lordofthelooks.com

I used a 3M Marine Aluminum Polish that I had bought at a local marine supply store, and it made the boat look almost like chrome. It's designed to bite through the film that brackish water leaves on aluminum, so it may be just what the doctor ordered.

Be careful and follow the instructions wearing gloves. It is truly, spray it on, go over everything with a stiff natural bristle brush and hose it off. We found it works better with one person splaying the stuff on, hitting it with the brush and the other fully rinsing it off. Looks brand new!

I learned this many years ago that the toilet bowl cleaner would clean the bottom of the boat and is much cheaper than the stuff you by at the marina, and it is basicly the same stuff. good luck
