Cheap Glider Trailer Refinish

wrote: Sounds great, good job. As to the rotary brush, I have heard that it should be brass to prevent steel doing a galvanic number on the aluminum (dissimilar metal corrosion) if you leave any ferrous metal behind. Thus my comment about using Scotchbrite. Good point. However, as pop rivets were used to join the panels on my trailer, and they almost always have steel cores, THAT damage was probably done decades ago.... -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |

Cheap Glider Trailer Refinish
FWIW, Scotch Brite on a grinding wheel (as opposed to manually scrubbing with square pads) works really well.
