Polishing an aluminum boat

[cardaddy]

On another use for flour.

Darrell Waltrip was talking yesterday about back in the 'old days' how they'd do anything to get that "aero" edge. Everything from taking a razor blade and shaving the "Goodyear" off the sidewalls of the tires to a file and sandpaper for even the smallest edges.

Then he mentioned a driver used to (after all of that) take flour and sprinkle it/rub it on the hood of his car before the Daytona (and Talladega) race. That drivers name escapes me however. Probably one of the Alabama gang, Bobby Allison perhaps.

My bad bro.

End product is brillant reflection on polished aluminum. Kinda wet looking, super slick feel. Long lasting.

Tim beat me to it.

Another Question, What product do you use on Truck fuel tanks to polish, I know there is lots of stuff out there, I've tried a few and like I said earlier last one I used was Gord's, it looked ok but not like on Gord's website
