I stood in the marine store and looked at 75 feet of shelving lined with dozens of bottles of boat wax, reading descriptive words like premium, ultra, uv protection, nano technology, exceptional, durable and easy-on.. Re: can i polish and wax a aluminium boat? non painted aluminum can be restored to near original appearance with a $3.50 bottle of aluminum jelly. add to that a couple hours of work - that cost depends on what your elbow grease is worth.. The best boat wax for pontoons the truth is, there is no wax that does better than the rest. what you need to look for when selecting a good wax is its ability to protect from damage and how easily it is to apply a coat..
Bare aluminum get's a oxidation/film on it that actually protect's it and waxing is not needed and can be detrimental. any aluminum "painted" surface can be waxed and recommended to protect the paint from fading. for water spots a spray bottle with a 50/50 solution of water and vinigar it will take care of them.. Oh dear. another "best wax" thread. could get as interesting as a "best oil," "best motor," or "best boat" thread. i will try to be helpful and say that i use meguiars cleaner wax on the hull and on aluminum. i have never had to deal with "really" dulled aluminum on the boats so i have no suggestions there.. The boat has been heavily oxidized and the 3m marine aluminum polish shined it up. i plan on using a buffing wheel for the entire boat this was just a test. i'm sure it will come out even better.
