Default paint faded and oxidized on aluminum boat?
I have a green painted tracker that has set out in arizona sun, it is faded which is no problem to me but the oxidation will rub off and makes a mess on whatever it touches. How do I clean this? thanks, Jim

Jim, you could try some cut polish compound. You can either rub it by hand, or use a power polisher.
