Starke Metal Polish is a marine metal polish for boat stainless, chrome, brass, and anodized aluminum towers—cuts light oxidation and haze, then levels to a high-gloss finish you can wipe clear in seconds.

Shop bottle for railings, hardware, towers, and brightwork when soap alone will not restore shine. Pair with Starke Revolution Cleaner Wax when you want longer protection after polish.

Why detailers keep it on the cart

  • Safe on common marine metals including anodized aluminum towers
  • Fast wipe to high gloss on railings, hardware, and brightwork
  • Follow with Revolution Cleaner Wax when lasting protection is needed
  • SKU: MET16

How to use

  1. Wash or wipe loose salt and dirt; work a cool, shaded surface
  2. Apply a small amount to a clean microfiber or foam applicator; work a section until haze clears
  3. Buff residue off with a fresh towel; inspect and move to the next area

Note: Spot-test delicate finishes. Do not use on hot metal or in direct sun. Keep polish off gelcoat you are not correcting, and wipe completely before wax or coating.

Starke Metal Polish was ok.
