Product recommendations for new enclosed trailer

[wil2007]

Buying a new enclosed aluminum trailer. Recomendations for products to use would be welcomed

Is the trailer painted or raw aluminum?

By hand, or machine?

If it is thinly painted, I believe a non abrasive metal polish is recommended. The polish acts like a cleaner, and the non abrasive part is to reduce the amount of paint removed.

There is some information on this in this thread.

It is new,actually being built. Color is pewter. I was thinking wash,non abrasive polish and then seal. My question then is what to use?I am thinking Collinite cleaner and insulator wax

the last custom trailer I did in Charcol grey (car hauler) had very soft paint. I don't know what brand of paint or if only certain paint is used on aluminum type trailers but it was super soft. I polished it out with CarPro reflect (finishing pad) and applied WolfGang Deep Gloss Sealant. It held up great and looked awesome.

If it were mine I would consider coating it to get longer protection. Something like CQUK or WG Uber Ceramic

I have the Uber ceramic to use on my truck, possibly get more for trailer.Thinking that the less polishing the better

I think that is a great idea. WG Uber Ceramic is super easy to use.
