Toon-Brite Pontoon & Aluminum Boat Cleaner and Polish Care Kit, BC1000

The Toon-Brite BC1000 Pontoon & Aluminum Boat Cleaner Care Kit brings together everything needed to clean, restore, and polish pontoons and aluminum boats in one package. The kit is built around a 64 oz. Full strength Aluminum Cleaner and an 18 oz. Container of Polisher and Restorer, along with a 3-finger trigger sprayer for easy application.

The Aluminum Cleaner removes marine deposits, scum, water line stains, and oxidation from aluminum pontoons, boat hulls, trailers, and canoes. Application is simple: spray it on using the included trigger sprayer and hose it off, letting it stand for up to 5 minutes for tougher buildup. The cleaner can be diluted 50/50 or more for lighter cleaning jobs, or used at full strength for boats left in the water.

Once the surface is clean, the Polisher and Restorer brings back a like-new look. It is formulated to polish and restore aluminum boats, pontoons, houseboats, and canoes, and it also works well on RVs, trailers, and most other metal surfaces including copper, brass, stainless steel, and chrome. It can be applied by hand for smaller jobs or with a buffer pad for larger areas. The polish is not recommended for use on anodized aluminum.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in the Toon-Brite BC1000 kit? The BC1000 kit includes a 3-finger trigger sprayer, a 64 oz. Container of full strength Aluminum Cleaner, and an 18 oz. Container of Polisher and Restorer, giving you everything needed to clean and polish an aluminum boat in one package.

How do I apply the aluminum cleaner in this kit? Spray the Aluminum Cleaner on using the included 3-finger trigger sprayer, adjusting the nozzle to a fine mist, then work from the bottom up. Let it stand for up to 5 minutes and rinse off; reapply to any areas that streak.

Do I need to dilute the BC1000 aluminum cleaner? For heavy cleaning, such as boats left in the water, the cleaner can be used at full strength. For lighter cleaning jobs, dilute it 50/50 or more.

Will the polish put a shine back on old, stained aluminum? No acid-based aluminum cleaner will restore a shine to old, stained aluminum on its own. The Polisher and Restorer included in the BC1000 kit is designed to bring back a like-new look after the surface has been cleaned.

What kind of finish does the BC1000 aluminum cleaner leave? The finish depends on mixing strength. A weaker ratio of about 3-5 to 1 removes slight stains and oxidation and leaves a fairly shiny finish if the original mill finish is intact, while a stronger 1-to-1 ratio bleaches aluminum to a uniform off-white finish.

Can the polish in this kit be used on metals other than aluminum? Yes, the Polisher and Restorer included with the BC1000 kit also works well on brass, copper, stainless steel, chrome, and most other metal surfaces.

Will the cleaner damage paint, decals, or trailer carpet? No, the Aluminum Cleaner in the BC1000 kit will not harm paint, vinyl decals, or trailer bunks and carpet as long as the surface is rinsed well after cleaning.

Can I apply the polish by hand, or is a buffer required? The Polisher and Restorer can be applied by hand for smaller jobs, though a buffer is recommended for larger areas since it works faster and is easier on the applicator.

What type of buffer works best with the BC1000 polish? A high quality 7 inch variable speed buffer fitted with a lambs wool, terry cloth, or hard foam pad is recommended for use with the Polisher and Restorer.

Is the polish in this kit safe on anodized aluminum? No, the Polisher and Restorer included in the BC1000 kit is not recommended for use on anodized aluminum.

Why does a black film appear while buffing with the polish? That black film is expected and is simply pigmentation being pulled out of the surface during buffing; it does not need to be removed separately and disappears as you buff the polish in and back out.

How much does the Toon-Brite BC1000 kit weigh? The Toon-Brite BC1000 Pontoon & Aluminum Boat Cleaner Care Kit weighs 6.09 pounds.
