SharkSkin to protect Aluminum from Water Staining

Some clearcoating solutions

Does anyone know of a wipe-on product called SharkSkin that is claimed to protect aluminum from discoloration due to oxidation and water staining?

Have not heard of SharkSkin, however Everbrite Protective Coating may be what you are looking for. It is an easy to apply, one part, self leveling clear coat which can be wiped on or sprayed on. It will refinish faded metal and protect it from oxidation, corrosion, moisture, salt air, acid rain and other damaging elements. Please feel free to contact Everbrite, Inc., Reno, NV if you have questions. Thank you, Teresa Sedmak

Hi, Gary. I'd be pretty sure that a little typo slipped in and you are actually looking for "Sharkhide". Sharkhide is a product of the site's supporting advertiser, Flatwater Inc., and is described with the terms you used.
