I just purchased a 1999 4 star trailer that has a raw aluminum finish. It has just been
acid washed. Would applying a clear coating be beneficial? I am new to aluminum. Will acid washing it every year break down the aluminum? My husband says the oxidation
gives the aluminum a protective layer, but I like it when it shines. Any comments?

I just purchased an insulating coating for my fiberglass trailer, but when I was on the website I got it from, they had some really good, clear coat finishes, that help protect from water and stuff. I was looking into the PermaClear product they have listed for one of my sheds because it's made out of aluminum.
I've had really good results with their stuff so far...
