So time has come to polish up my flying bridge, about 100 feet of two
inch aluminum tubing. I don't want to start any fights, but what do you
all recommend?


Muskrat, I am going to MAKE YOUR DAY!

There is a product sold for corrosion prevention called Corrosion-X.
It's a tad expensive compared to other products, but think of it as wd40
on steroids. the stuff is AWESOME. I literally keep 6 spray bottles of
the stuff aboard.

Spray some onto a rag or cloth, and simply wipe the aluminium with it
lightly. It will gleam like polished stainless. No kidding. Try a bottle
and you will never want to stop using it.

Not affiliated at all with the company, I just love the stuff!
