Expert Aluminum Polishing in York

A few clear signs point to it: the aluminum looks chalky or cloudy, the tanks have gone dull and gray, white oxidation has built up in spots, water no longer beads on the surface, or the rig just does not shine the way it used to.

We start by cleaning the surface, then cut through the oxidation with a series of compounds and pads, working up through finer stages until the aluminum reaches a mirror finish. We finish by sealing it so the shine holds up longer on the road.

The main factors are how much aluminum you want done, the condition it is in, and how much oxidation has built up. A neglected rig takes more cutting than one that is touched up regularly. Wheels, tanks, and full trucks all scope differently. Get a free quote here.

That depends on how the truck is run and stored, the weather it sees, and whether it gets sealed and maintained. A sealed finish that is kept up holds its shine far longer than bare aluminum left to face road brine and sun.

It varies with scope and condition. A set of wheels or tanks can be a few hours, while a complete aluminum polish on a heavily oxidized rig can run a full day or more. The amount of oxidation is usually the biggest factor.
