Instructions
Because aluminum oxidizes unevenly, heavily crusted areas are more resistant to cleaning than lighter areas, so follow these steps for best results. Failure to follow instruction will result in an uneven, streaked, or patchy finish.
Starbrite Aluminum Cleaner & Restorer must;
ALWAYS be applied evenly using a scrubber pad
ALWAYS thoroughly rinsed before drying
ALWAYS followed with Star brite Aluminum Polish.
ITEMS NEEDED:
Before you begin, you will need acid resistant gloves, eye protection, Star brite Ultimate Aluminum Cleaner & Restorer, a Star brite medium scrubber pad (the red one), Star brite Ultimate Aluminum Polish, several clean polishing cloths, and a hose with fresh water for rinsing.
Step 1.
To avoid creating drip marks, start at the bottom of the area to be cleaned and work upward, in small sections at a time. Generously apply Star brite Ultimate Aluminum Cleaner & Restorer to the surface in smooth, even strokes using the fine mist setting on the sprayer nozzle. The cleaner will foam when it contacts oxidation which indicates it is working.
Step 2.
Use a Star brite medium red scrub pad to spread the cleaner to ensure uniform coverage. Then scrub evenly with steady pressure to allow the cleaner to penetrate into the heavier oxidized areas.
Step 3.
Rinse the cleaned surface thoroughly with fresh water. Be sure to rinse the surfaces below as well. DO NOT allow cleaner to dry on any surface.
Repeat these steps as needed until clean. Heavy oxidation may require several applications and scrubbing to completely remove. Note that the cleaned surface may still appear uneven until it is polished.
