[QUOTE="Douglasdzaster, post: 488034, member: 27803"] Dale, do I keep cleaning the pits as I’ve been doing or use the vinegar and copper scrub now? I’ve tried vinegar to remove the white corrosion from in the pits and it didn’t. Does vinegar neutralize it though? I’ve also tried baking soda with and without vinegar. Heading out now to apply more vinegar and scrub with the copper and check that out. I have some Krudd Kutter metal clean and etch that says it’s safe for aluminum but haven’t got desperate enough to try it. Don’t know if I should trust it. Lol I don’t know if you want pictures. Lol It’s going to be scratchy because I had to get aggressive removing the coating and I’m just doing it to fix the corrosion not going to 500 grit wet sand , lol. I’m ready to get back on the water. Besides the old boat could use a complete make over but that’s coming later down the road.[ATTACH type="full" alt="60E8088F-01C7-4020-B29B-6011C244D897.jpeg"]110868._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
