Trailer cleaning?

I'm cleaning up an aluminum snowmobile trailer to try and sell it. What would be the best and easiest way to clean up the aluminum? Is there a faster way than using aluminum polish?

they do sell some commercial grade aluminum cleaner, you spray on let it sit and wash off
the stuff I have tried never worked that great, and sure doesn't leave behind a shinny finish if that is your goal, but did remove a bunch of stains and grime/gunk.

but if you want a polished finish, a buffer and wax/cleaner is the only way I know to get it!
BETTER YET
find a young kid that works cheap LOL
they will have a better back for bending over all that time needed to do it!!

they need to be old enough to use the buffer, yet young enough to NOT know its a crappy job!! HAHA!
Good luck!

I used L.A. TOTALLY AWESOME on my triton elite 101...sprayed on....hosed off....then I scotch brited it with a dotco grinder and then L.A. again....like showroom condition...only stuff to ever take off the black exhaust from belly pan too...dollar general 3 bucks a gallon...cleans like 300 dollas

pontoon cleaner is ok but nothing will get a shine with out work. really not many guys care that much about a shiny trailer wash it and sell it . the extra 100 bucks u would get for the work put in not worth it.
I have always looked at week points and where axil bolts to alloy tires lights and hookup plug and wires never the shine
