I just brought home a used Elite trailer. The white clearcoat finish seems quite dull. Can anyone recommend a good product and method for restoring the original luster?Thanks TLR

You can use a marine fiberglass/metal polishing compound, that will remove the oxidation and polish the surface.http://www.jamestowndistributors.com/userportal/show_product.do?pid=8069

Thanks for your response Gard. I had already purchased some Mcquires cleaner/wax. I applied a thin coat, let it dry and buffed it out with my electric buffer. It worked great and seems to be a good product.Thanks AgainTLR
