What products can be used on aluminium tanks to make them shiny?
You notice on some trucks,that their tanks are gleaming,and not pitted,so I’m thinking there must be a product that you can buy,that doesn’t cost a kings ransom,that brings them up.
Also,what implement do people use on a truck that has a 6x2 configuration,to reach those hard to get to places due to the mid axle?
quinny if the tanks a bit far gone cover a rag in diesel wipe the tank over then get some autosol ally cleaning paste and polish the tank it will take a while once youve done that use peek ally polish in future as its not as abrasive as autosol.to do the chassis you want a brush about the same size as one you get with a dustpan the down side is youve got either lay down on the chassis or get underneath.have fun
All we do here is spay alloy cleaner on, wait a few seconds and hose it off, I find that alloy wheel spray does the same thing and you can buy that in any car accesory shop
Can’t believe you’re thinking about polishing your Twingo…
I just want to keep the tank clean Rob,as it’s started to pit a little bit,and it’s only 10 months old.
But I may give it up,as we have 3 Merc Axor’s just arrived until September,and then they are to be replaced with 3 new ■■?. The Mercs are 2x03 plate,and 1x52 plate,so I’m off into the office tomorrow to see what’s arriving in their place.The Mercs are a temporary trade off until the new ■■? arrive,but if they are Twingo’s,I might as well hang onto the one I’ve got,coz I have a feeling the 3 replacements will be the same age as mine,just they must be surplus to requirements at HQ.
