Product Description
Fleet Aluminum Brightener for Non-Polished Aluminum Tanks, Trailers & Wheels
Karcher Fleet Aluminum Brightener is an extra-strength, acid-based aluminum cleaner and brightener designed for non-polished aluminum tanks, trailers, aluminum wheels, and aluminum surfaces being prepared for painting.
This professional fleet wash chemical helps remove grease, oils, baked-on carbon, diesel smoke, oxidation, and road film from approved aluminum surfaces. It is safer than hydrofluoric acid products and is designed for use through a downstream injector only, not through the high-pressure pump.
