Cleaning Aluminum Boats

[Thornback]

What are some suggestions for cleaning the dried pond scum water-line off an aluminum boat? Presently I'm using WD-40 and a bronze wool pad. I would like to know of an easier way that would save me a tennis elbow.

There products around sold by everybody. They will work and they are hard work, stick to it and the results will please you.

Today I put some white vinegar on a wash cloth and it seemed to work without a lot of rubbing or pressure. To clarify -- I don't want to shine the aluminum I just want the pond scum line removed. Does anyone use white vinegar and any comments on it being harmful to the aluminum?
