i want to clean algi from pontoons on my pontoon boat,,can muratic acid be used??????
Seaplane pontoons are made of aluminum.This is an aircraft grade aluminum such as 2024-T3.
Copper sulfate will interact with and corrode aluminum. If this aluminum is a pontoon on a boat, the corrosion will puncture holes in the pontoons, so make sure that everyone onboard has a life preserver.
You can clean the aluminum particles by dusting them away.
A lot of it depends on the boat; a new clean fiberglass bass boat with a smooth bottom will take less fuel than a 50-year-old aluminum pontoon boat with rows of rivets running down the middle of the pontoons.
To remove both oil and grease you should clean aluminum with a solution of water and mild dish washing liquid. Generally, aluminum items around your home just need a good periodic dusting with a soft, clean cloth, to keep clean and shiny. Thanks!
