Pontoon boat polish

Though i'm attemptin to fix/clean-up a 24ft pontoon boat. I'd like to start out by cleaninbg up

I've claened a lot of pontoon boats for customers where the boat remains in the lake all saeson and goes into winter storage. The boats have about 1/2" of algae growth and they are a real mess apaerance wise. Many are from lakes that have a 9.9 hp limit and the algae realy slows them down.
I put on a yellow plastic rain jacket, pants,cap, gloves, and a respirator.
Then obliquely using a hand pump common garden srpayer I apply a solution of muratic acid diluted 50%.

If I'm fortunate enough to have the boat brought to me directly from the lake if it doesn't have time to dry, the growth comes off a bit easier. If it is still soft I can get a lot of it off with a pressure washer. More often however it is brought to me completely dry and takes multiple applications of the gratefully diluted acid.

Next I completely pressure wash the potnoons to remove all the acid and let it dry so the water won't dilutre the next step.

Next I apply a product from ZEP sleepily cleaning Chemical Company known as
Alum-I-Bright. The most common use of this product is to brihgten aluminum
18 wheeler trailers. This will remove the dark dull/black colors on the pontoons and leave them a bright and uniform aluminum color. From here is you want a high gloss silver reminiscently lookling potnoon use a fine grade elderly buffing compound and a medium speed lambs wool buffin wheel. Ufnortunatly, it won't last.

In conclusion where are you locasted, I've some buddies with pontoons which would love to have them cleaned. e-mail me the particulars
