Guest Geoff & Pam Cullen Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hello EveryoneI took delivery of my new Kedron Van in october 2007 and would like to keep the aluminium checker plate bright, and in particular by keeping the red dust out of the pores and sending it dull. I have been advised to coat it with "PENETROL", has anyone heard of this or any other products or suggestions that will keep the aluminium in as new condition.Many thanksGeoff Cullen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueheeler Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Geoff, While at a auto parts store today a lady enquired about a polish for keeping aluminum clean and bright and I rememberd your request. The product she asked for was WICKED polish and is sold at all major Truck part stores. Aparently all the Truckies use this product on their rigs. I personally have't used ityet but my mate has ordered a bottle in for me. When I try it, I'll let you know how it is and the cost of the product.Regards,Kingy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueheeler Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Geoff, :biggrin: I purchased the metal polish(WICKED) yesterday, and I managed try try it out this afternoon when I arrived home from work. You can notice the difference straight away. It reminds me of the old days when I served in the Navy. The product is very similar to BRASSO so I'll just have to wait and see how it last in the weather. The price was $32.95 but I paid about $27.00 trade.Regards,Kingy. :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geoff & Pam Cullen Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 :thumbsup: Thanks Kingy for your reply and info. We are currently in Horsham heading for Adelaide where I will have a look for the product. It certainly seems to be the what I'm looking for especially if it protects from the red dust!Much appreciated,Geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueheeler Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Geoff, There is another product called "PURPLE". It too can be purchased at a Truck Accessory Shop. I have been told it 's also a very good product for Polished Aluminum Products. At least you now have a choice of two to try. Hope this has helped.Regards .Kingy.
