What are you using to keep the aluminum clean and shiny ?

I found a piece that is 4' x 10' out on the Interstate and would like to use it on my trailer , if I can find something to keep it clean ........................

A buffing wheel with some stainless cleaner is what I used for the diamond plate.

The wheel gets down past the ridges of the diamond plate.

Then wipe with a dry cloth (or dry buffing wheel) to rid of the residue.

Ernie, I like Mothers Aluminum polish and use a scrap piece of deep pile carpet for the cleaning then a terry cloth towel to buff up.
