    Need Help with Oxidation Removal

    My GOOD( might not be after this one HA)friend brought me a trailer this morning and said clean it up make it shine!( ohyehright).

    Its an aluminum trailer with ss paint and extreamly thin I might add. The oxidation is very severe and I'm a little lost.....tried everthing I have and its not getting it!

    now what I have will usually work 90% of the time.
    105/205
    151
    UC
    UP
    HT pads
    I do have a rotory which I'm not afraid of using but my wool pads are wore out and never replaced(hardly use it anyways)I did try it a little today with 105 and it wasn't cutting it (pun intendend!

    looking for some suggestions to remove the oxidation and bring some shine back to this trailer......not so worried about correction just the oxidation

    No pics sorry guys.....and no way to put some up right now!

    Anyone who has worked on this I'm open to suggestions....I do have a little time with this cause the weather is not going to be good for the next few days....but would like this out of way asap.

    If it is single stage, try heading to your local auto parts store and pick up some Meguiar's glaze. My internet is slow here at work, but there is a thread Mike Phillips has that explains how to fix single stage really well. Basically saturate the paint with glaze and let it sit. Let the oils in the glaze rejuvenate the paint.

    Duragloss #501 Marine/RV Polish, cuts through oxidation, lightly polishes the surface, and leaves behind great protection. If that doesn't work you may need a purple foamed wool pad w/ M105. Good luck!
