    Dull finish on my boat

    I was thinking about polishing the bare aluminum on my Crestliner. Has anybody shined up their bare aluminum areas on their boats. If so what products and how long did it last.

    After you clean and polish use Sharkhide it isn’t as much a polish as an after polish clear coat. It will keep your polished aluminum looking bright and new for a couple of years.

    I used 3M Aluminum boat hull polish, afterwards I applied several coats of Turtle wax. Lasted well over a year before I sold the boat and it still looked good at that time.
