trying to get buildup of grim off steering rams, tie bar, stainless props, have tried works,, on/off, mean green, orange cleaner, scrubbed and cant get off. what pad and product will sparkle the stainless,

Muriatic acid (swimming pool store) followed immediately by a fresh water rinse and a coat of Mobil One spray or other anti-corrosion spray. (WD-40 does not inhibit corrosion - read the can.) Works like magic, but use it OUTSIDE and do NOT get a whiff of it (chlorine gas).

I just bought some Mother's Mag and Aluminum Polish, then some Mother's Power Metal and used it yesterday. It made the 24 year old chrome engine vents shine a whole lot better. I have the feeling, the more times I apply it, it will look better and better. I got the idea from a friend of mine who used it on the aluminum trailer of his 22 Donzi, and I swear his trailer looked like polished stainless steel. Worth a try I'd say.

I've found PB Blaster and a scotch brite to work pretty well to remove any light surface rust. Then polish and wax it.

I have my own line of chemicals.
Quick-shot is what we use.

Give me a call and I'll send you some.

I agree with C-Spray,muratic acid at Home Depot or Lowes. Used it for years,cheap and easy.

sno bowl works pretty good as well and it wont burn a hole in your driveway

You will never get chlorine gas from muriatic acid. Chlorine gas comes from chlorine, acid fumes come from muriatic/ sulfuric acid. To kill fumes add a capful of tile soap and the fumes will not be as heavy. Remember sodium bicarbonate (good ol' baking soda) neutralizes the acid in the event of a spill.

Any type of fiberglass cleaner/ hull cleaner that is acid based will make props/ tie bars shine like new and are less caustic than muriatic/sulfuric acid.
