Polishing

[winston10]

Hi,
What maintenance is required after polishing trailer?

[Dingo Girl]

More polishing?

As soon as you stop polishing, the aluminum starts to oxidize again.
depending on the product you use to polish, it will take more or less time before you need a complete re polish, but eventually it will no longer be shiny.

The nuvite is supposed to last a long time but I haven't' tried that yet.

I've been waxing my trailer since I started polishing and it keeps the shine along time. Regular car wax works for me.

Polish to a mirror then a wax to seal it. Or use a polish that has carnauba in it such a speedy all metal polish. This will help keep the shine longer. There is also coatings like sharkhide, exo - armour and alumaclear that act as a temporary clear coat for a few years. Best shine is just re-polishing often, longest lasting is the clear coat products I mentioned.
