used this on a 4 foot section of pontoon log. I don't like how it looks, personal preference I guess. does anyone know how I can get this stuff off ? Thanks

I'm sure you were hoping for the look of the original toon finish. All of these aluminum cleaners are an acid that etch the material to clean it. You'll never match the mill finish of new aluminum.

What Joe said :(

It's an etch and not something you can just 'get off'.
