Subject: acid washing trailer pictures



Fancy prairie, Illinois
I've washed about a half dozen dump trailers this year and this one turned out so good I thought I better get some pictures. I used almost 3 quarts of trailmobile alumabrite acid on the whole trailer. A 1 to 10 ratio, 3xs the recommended amount. This trailmobile acid really foams up good and seems like it doesn't streak at all. I like to pump the sprayer up to high pressure so it goes on in smaller droplets. This just 2 coats of acid and one wash on the sides and two on the bottom. Don't be stingy with the stuff, put alot on.

Looks good , I've been looking for something similar for my hopper, truck washes call it "citrus". Is that pretty much what your using?

Blue Beacon has Citrishine, use it all the time, no problem at all on polished or stainless either one. Never use "brightener" or acid any more. Works good. Acid is what will take the shine off your polished.

All the bottle says is Trailmobile cleaner and brightener. I've uses a couple other brands but this seems to work much better. The paint on the draft arms only about 2 days old and didn't get hurt at all. It will dull polished wheels it left on to long.
