How to Restore and Protect Aluminum from
Fading, Oxidation, and Corrosion

Restore the Color and Luster to Faded, Anodized or Painted Aluminum

Aluminum oxidizes, fades and corrodes. You can restore oxidized aluminum surfaces to look new and keep them looking great indefinitely.  Everbrite Coatings are specialty aluminum sealers used to restore bare aluminum, anodized aluminum and painted or powder-coated aluminum to look new and protect it from fading, oxidation and corrosion. 

​

Our clear aluminum sealers are easy to apply, scratch-resistant and corrosion-resistant, to make your surface look and stay new-looking and much easier to keep clean.

  • For architectural, painted or anodized aluminum, use Everbrite Coating.

  • For unpainted automotive, marine, or highly polished aluminum, use ProtectaClear.

  • For high-touch aluminum that needs antimicrobial protection like railings, use CrobialCoat.

Customer Reviews for Aluminum

Five Star Review

"I purchased ProtectaClear to seal my boat's aluminum pontoons from oxidizing after I had cleaned and polished them. Appears to be an excellent product. The sealer is self leveling, so brush strokes filled in nicely.  Excellent company. Shipped my order out promptly and without issue. Expensive stuff, but if it works as advertised, I'm sold."

WHEELS & TRIM

Protect Your Aluminum and Alloy Wheels & Rims from
Road Salts, Brake Dust, and Other Corrosion

Brake dust can eat away at your wheels and is the single most destructive thing for them. This process happens inside the wheels and can be very damaging.  Brake dust is a fine powder residue created from the brake rotor wearing away the brake pads. The pads contain carbon fibers, various graphite, steel, iron, copper shavings and an acidic adhesive. It is very sticky and collects in every nook and cranny of the wheel. If allowed to sit on your wheels, the highly corrosive brake dust can pit the metal. Brake dust leaves gummy deposits that are hard to remove. 

​

Winter can attack your wheels as well as other metal on your car, truck or bike. Road salts and chemicals used on roads for snow and ice control can corrode, pit and stain your wheels, chrome bumpers and other metal trim on your car, truck or bike. You can protect your aluminum, chrome or alloy wheels from corrosion, oxidation and road salts with ProtectaClear.

PATIO FURNITURE

Restore & Protect Aluminum Patio Furniture with Everbrite Coating

​While aluminum patio furniture doesn’t rust like iron, sun exposure, rain, and salt air cause powder-coated aluminum to become dull, faded, and chalky over time. Uncoated or raw aluminum develops white corrosion, pitting, and oxidation.

Instead of spending hundreds or thousands of dollars replacing your patio set or paying $200+ per chair for professional repowder-coating, Everbrite Coating restores original color, depth, and shine for a fraction of the cost. By forming an invisible, non-peeling barrier, Everbrite protects cast aluminum, tubular aluminum, and powder-coated frames without altering their natural finish.

​

  • Save Hundreds Over Replacement: Avoid expensive replacement costs or costly professional refinishing ($200+ per chair) by restoring your existing aluminum furniture to a factory-fresh finish yourself.

  • Revives Faded Powder Coating: Instantly restores color depth and luster to sun-bleached, chalky, or oxidized powder-coated aluminum finishes.

  • Stops White Rust & Oxidation: Seals out moisture, humidity, and coastal salt air to stop raw aluminum corrosion and pitting before it starts.

  • Micro-Thin, Durable Shield: Bonds directly to the metal surface to protect against future UV fading without cracking, peeling, or creating a thick, plastic-like film.

  • Easy Application for Intricate Designs: Apply liquid Everbrite Coating with a soft cloth for smooth tubular frames, or use Everbrite Aerosol Spray to seamlessly coat intricate cast aluminum lattice, mesh, and ornate scrollwork without runs or drips.

Don't replace chalky or weathered outdoor sets—save money and bring your aluminum patio furniture back to life today!

ALUMINUM TRAILERS

Polished, Painted or Anodized Aluminum Trailers - Restore & Protect them with Everbrite Coatings.

Travel trailers like Airstreams and Avion trailers are iconic trailers made from aluminum.   Airstream trailers are highly-polished aluminum and the polished aluminum can be coated and protected with ProtectaClear to stop water spots and tarnish.  Avion trailers are anodized aluminum and some others are powdercoated so they fade and get dull.  Everbrite Coating is recommended for the restoration and maintenance of Avion trailers and other trailers that are not highly polished.  Our coatings keep the metal looking new and will keep the aluminum much easier to clean.  

​

Utility trailers, horse trailers and cargo trailers are also made from aluminum and can be sealed and protected with Everbrite Coating to prevent tarnish, oxidation, corrosion and fading.  Horse trailers and utility trailers that are exposed to horse urine or fertilizer corrode very quickly unless protected.  Everbrite Coating will protect the aluminum from the corrosion that urea causes.  

​

Buy Everbrite Coating for most trailers - painted, anodized aluminum or bare aluminum.  For highly polished or mirror polished aluminum, buy ProtectaClear.

Polished Aluminum Directions

​

  1. Polish or buff the aluminum surface to the luster desired with any metal polish you like. The metal can also be sanded or just cleaned.

  2. Neutralize. Many polishes contain acid, the surface must be neutralized. Use EZ Prep Cleaner & Neutralizer mixed 1:5 with water OR 1 cup baking soda mixed with 1 gallon of water. Wash the metal with the neutralizing solution. Rinse with fresh water. Dry with a clean cloth to prevent spotting.

  3. Wipe with a clean solvent like denatured alcohol or xylene (available at hardware stores) to remove any contaminants.

  4. Apply ProtectaClear. Two coats are recommended with an hour between coats. 

  5. Let dry and Enjoy the Beauty.

​

Anodized Aluminum Directions

​

1. Clean the Aluminum. The amount of cleaning will depend on the condition of the anodized aluminum. If the window frames or extruded anodized aluminum is just dull or faded, it can be washed with EZ Prep or mild soap and water. If the anodized aluminum is pitted or stained, you might need a no-scratch cleanser like Bon Ami (available at hardware or grocery stores) or Prep Pads included in the kits.

​2. Solvent Wipe. Denatured alcohol is recommended to remove any traces of residue. 

3. Apply Everbrite Coating. Two coats are recommended with an hour in between each coat.

**Tip: Once you apply ProtectaClear or Everbrite Coating, let it dry. It is self-leveling and will dry to a smooth, even coat.
