"Acid Wash" for trailer?

DScott · Nov 3, 2009

I have a 12 foot enclosed white aluminum that has set outside for a while under a tree (before I got it) and it's dingy looking, looks like it has been stained on the white sheet metal. I know the 18 wheelers use an acid wash occasionally to clean this off. I have scrubbed a couple of times using detergent and car wash soap but that didn't get much of it. Anyone know what to use and/or where to get it?

rub'n compound and elbow grease are a wax/polish along with elbo grease

Acid wash are puple powere oxidize the paint ,,, works good but in a short time the shin will wash off and the paint surface will turn to dust,,, course you can do the acid wash and return the shin till all the paint is gone

I buy purple power concentrate 55 gal. at a time (the good stuff),,, $90 nanners,,, cleans chit but have learned were not to use it,,, a painted surface is not one of'em if I am look'n for longevity.

I do have the problem of iffin a little is good than moe is better,,, I don't cut it,,, use it straight,,, its mean
