Re: [VAL] (no subject)...Clearcoat question

[Daisy Welch <jtdjtd@xxxxxxxx>]

Clearcoat is like the laquer coating on brass hardware and other metals 
that keep it from tanishing. Bare aluminum gradually dulls and oxidises 
(?) getting grayer and more corroded with time.

AS has had a number of different formulas for this coating. Some are 
pretty tough and others get cloudy and peel off eventually, which makes 
the trailer look awful.  The only thing to do at that point is to strip 
off the clearcoat.

Then, you are faced with a choice: polish it once a year (or twice if 
you are obsessed ) or have it recoated by a pro. Not a job for home. 
Toxic and difficult to handle.
