Hi Goyo,
I have the MSDS on it. The only hazardous component is Mineral Spirits. There is no mention of acid anywhere, but the PH is listed as 6.8-7.8 - I don't remember enough abuot my high-school checmistry class to recall what the acid range was. Most of the data sheet is concerned with it's flammability.
I still have plenty for sale if anyone needs some...

3M PADS on Ebay
For those of you not in a hurry with your polishing project watch Ebay for 3M buffing pads. I was able to assemble a complete set of 5 pads over a month for way less than the cheapest suppliers on the net.
Just do a search for 'buffing pads".
Got that trailer done yet Steph??

Just so you know..
PH is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. A pH of 7 is neutral, a pH level above 7 indicates alkalinity, and pH levels of less than 7 indicate acidity.

From that quote it looks like I didn't pass spelling class either
I wasn't sure but I thought 7 was neutral. Thanks for the heads up.
No, no polishing here yet, but I'm considering taking advantage of these cool cloudy days to get started. At least I won't have to worry about the skin being too hot, and we do occasionally have days without rain. At the very least I want to repolish the ends to remove the sticky gunk from the old numbers and get my new numbers put on before next season.

A couple weeks ago Silver Eagle mentioned that he would be interesed in selling to forum members. I would definitely be interested in utilizing this product to clean up my 31' trailer. Does the offer still stand? Did someone state that it took 3 bottles to completely finish a 31' trailer? Mine is another one with the clearcoat flaking off. Maybe it will require additonal ss to cut thru the clear coat.

Silver Eagle, please check your private messages. Boltos has sent you a message asking how to order a few bottles, but has not received a reply from you. Thanks.

You know I know very little about polishing, but I saw some photos recently of a person that has been using it on a 70s Airstream with great results.

Looking good!
What technique(s) are you using to apply the SS?
You don't know how lucky you are to be able to do this inside!
Keep it up!

I am just using 3-m bufing pads. with a makita buffer set on low which is about 1200 RPM.
I have used some wet sanding technics along with a product called met-all to clean surface. I am also using thinner to clean surface after each go over.

SS Worked!
Really looks nice so far. How many bottles will you need to finish the entire trailer (I also have a 31' that I want to polish). Thanks,
Montanaandy

14 Hours of SS Polishing
Hello,
After a long time of procratinating on polishing the FC, I decided it was time. I had done a test spot with the Southern Shine earlier as seen in the before picture. Spent about 14 hours over 5 days in the early morning as is getting too hot after 9AM here in sunny San Joaquin Valley of California. I used only Southern Shine which I bought from Stephanie. Did a little wet sanding with 1000 grit in the really bad places. I still have more to do especially on window frames and top of trailer and on front and curb side. But seems to be a fairly good start. 14 hours didn't include about 2 to 3 hours of washing with Dawn detergent and blue and sometimes green 3M scratch pad. I have only about a 1/4 bottle left of SS so ordered a sampler pack of Nuvite which I think includes F7, C and S to see how that works. Hopefully, the 2 after pictures and the 1 before picture show up. Will post more later.
