We just purchased an older Exiss that the aluminum has oxidized on. Its a sharp looking trailer but the aluminum looks dull.

Where should I start looking for someone to acid wash this trailer? I have done our 2 horse by myself, however this trailer is HUGE and since the bottom of the walls are extruded I don't want to risk streaking the trailer.

Would a truck (like a semi) wash place be able to do it?

Thanks in advance!

I bought Streak Master's Aluminum Brightner. I only used 1/4 of a gallon (mixed with water) on the entire trailer (20ft Gooseneck painted and extruded Aluminum). This product really worked! Shines like new. The trailer has been sitting out in the weather since cleaning it last fall and it still shines like new.
