hello, i've been looking in on this site for about a week now and thought i would chime in. i just got a 1997 bass tracker proteam 17, 40 horse mariner. and was wondering what all you other aluminun owners use for keeping it looking sharp. i've been out in it five times now, and am loving it. been looking at alot of clubs, and wbc looks like it may be the one for me. i will probly make it to the meeting this thursday to join so i can start climbing my way up in the points

actually, i was looking more for some product reveiws from other poeple who have used them.  thanks for the reply though.

excellent, i don't know why i didn't think of that... seeings how i use tons of it on my harley. thanks!

A nice coat of tarnish makes a great protectant!

Keeps ya from going blind from the glare of a polished tin boat too!!

One of the things to do when salmon fishing out of Tacoma was to hang around the boathouse till you saw an old guy in a beatup 14' livingston with the seagull sitting on the bow heading out.  Then you followed him.  Figuring he was there to fish and not just to be the fancy dan of the water.

Hey Grubber,
  To Brians point, NEVERDULL is awesome stuff.  It will look better than new!  To "The Revs'" point, you will need alot more motivation than most people can muster.  I did a 6x10 trailer several years ago, finally finished the drivers side, needless to say, never did do the passengers side but anyone on the drivers side thought I was a neat freak, on the passenger side, just another trailer going down the road.  Going to a carwash, keep the "cute ones" on the drivers side and you'll be good to go!
  Your "pride and joy", no matter how dull it looks, will always look better with a limit in the livewell.  Keep your priorities in order my man.  Time polishing is time not figuring out those little brown and green critters we've all learned to love when they're biting and hate when they're not.  BTW, first bad rainstorm when trailering the boat, get the polish back out, cuz' the perfect shine doesn't last very long.  Good luck with the fishing, skip the polishing.  HE HAS SPOKEN!!!!
