Everyone is talking about polishing. Is it necessary to polish to getrid of
corrosion? I have only had an A/S for two week, and I have learned3 things.
I have leaks, rot and corrosion. Thanks to many of you, I know howto
approach the first two, however, it seems to me that protection ofthe skin
needs to be the first project. The mirror finishes look great but,I would
be happy with natural alumn. which was sealed in some fashion to allowfor
cleaning, until I can see the end of the todo list.

Must the plasticoat be removed to stop corrosion, or could a sealerbe used
to stop its progress?
