Review: Great product, tritoon kept its shine all summer! - With patience, this product did the job! Review: Works GREAT as long as there isn't alot of pitting - On my trailers aluminum windows this stuff worked so great on the chalky areas, they actually came out shining like a mirror! This stuff doesn't work on major pitting. In fact there is pitting in most areas of my windows (from exposure to salty sea air) but even getting the non-pitted areas shiny make everything look better especially when you take a few steps back. The pitting will look like corrosion (in case you don't know - the pitting is the rough parts like there is something that needs to be scraped off, the smoother "chalky white" areas will come out shiny) It did help the pitted areas some but took more buffing. Be prepared to use up ALOT of soft cloths, the junk that comes off is black.It doesn't smell that bad so you can use it indoors in my opinion and my cloths washed for reuse (stains weren't totally gone but that is ok). You will be using a good amount of "elbow grease" it takes time to get the results even - especially since my windows have screws through the metal every few inches and it's harder to get it buffed in those areas. But this is definately a good product. ## Features - Restores the beauty and luster to aluminum - Removes heavy oxidation and chalking - Turns back the clock on the effects of weathering on aluminum - Concentrated formula provides a lot of cleaning with a small amount - May be applied by hand or machine - For industrial/occupational use only. Not for consumer use. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000RZPNNW | | Best Sellers Rank | #114,878 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #61 in Chrome & Metal Polishes | | Brand Name | 3M | | Compatible Material | Aluminum | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (819) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00051131090200 | | Grit Material Type | Wax | | Grit Number | 1000 | | Grit Type | Medium | | Included Components | 3M 09020 Marine Aluminum Restorer & Polish | | Item Dimensions | 4 x 4 x 4 inches | | Item Type Name | 3M Marine Aluminum Restorer & Polish (09020) – For Boats and RVs – 18 Ounces | | Item Weight | 1.25 Pounds | | Manufacturer | 3M | | Material Type | Aluminum | | UPC | 051131090200 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** 3M - **Grit Material:** Wax - **Grit Type:** Medium - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 4 x 4 x 4 inches - **Material:** Aluminum ## Images ![Marine Aluminum Restorer and Polish, 09020, 18 oz, for Marine Detailing, Remove Heavy Oxidation and Chalking, 1 Tube - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81oNJfb27HL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this product clean the pontoons on a boat?** A: It's the best cleaner /l/sealer on the market . I've used many products, but this is hands down the best , and once you have it totally cleaned, and polished , it seals so well it will blow your mind. The first time I tried it, I did a 6" square on the radiator trim on a Peter built and ran the truck all winter cross country in salt spray ,snow, and water of normal cross country hi way driving . I had the truck washed weekly , and the next summer when I sold the truck, that spot on the radiator still looked like new. More recently, I did the pitted front fork tubes on my 200 HD road ling, and I am equally impressed with it's cutting ability . I can say again, you will not find a better product for aluminum anywhere. Buy in volume if its cheaper. You use it forever. **Q: i have a 20' boat, will 1can do or do i need 2** A: I have a 20 foot and did it with one container. **Q: Has anyone used this to remove green marks from oil bronzed faucet? Thanks!** A: I have used it only on polished aluminum, so can't answer this one. **Q: Can this be used on a snowmobile tunnel?** A: Thank you for your question. No, the 3M 09020 Marine Aluminum Restorer and Polish would not be the appropriate product for your application. We would suggest reaching out to the snowmobile manufacturer for the proper product. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, tritoon kept its shine all summer! *by K***S on December 29, 2025* With patience, this product did the job! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works GREAT as long as there isn't alot of pitting *by K***N on May 8, 2014* On my trailers aluminum windows this stuff worked so great on the chalky areas, they actually came out shining like a mirror!

But this is definately a good product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ As good as muriatic acid --- if you want a bright shinny finish *by R***H on August 1, 2014* With a bit of elbow grease this does a good job --- equal too or a bit better than straight muriatic acid (34% hydrochloric acid). I tried both on badly stained pontoon boat tubes using a no-scratch Scotch bright pad (also tried using a heavy duty Scotch bright pad but that really did significantly scratch the aluminum). At first the muriatic acid did nothing, but then after setting for a couple of minutes and with some rubbing it did take off about 60-70% of the discoloration as did the 3M product with about the same amount of scrubbing on each. There is one significant difference in the final result: the muriatic left things dull with a slight white haze whereas the 3M made things bright and shinny --- nice if you're cleaning a whole area but not so nice if you're spot cleaning. Considering the hazards with the muriatic I'd go with the 3M (although it is not totally non-hazardous either). ## Frequently Bought Together - 3M Marine Aluminum Restorer and Polish, 09020, 18 oz, for Marine Detailing, Remove Heavy Oxidation and Chalking, 1 Tube - Tworider 6 pcs Buffing Wheel for Drill,Buffing Pad Polishing Wheel Kits,Wheel Shaped Polishing Tool for Metal Aluminum,Stainless Steel,Chrome,Jewelry,Wood,Plastic,Ceramic,Glass,etc - 3M Metal Restorer and Polish, 09019, 18 oz Paste --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/5479694-marine-aluminum-restorer-and-polish-09020-18-oz-for-marine](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/5479694-marine-aluminum-restorer-and-polish-09020-18-oz-for-marine) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
