Works great, be sure and wear long gloves and face protection. I use a gallon pump sprayer and work a 3 or 4 ft area then rinse well. FYI, your logs will look white for a while before the aluminum shine comes back. Also logs will darken faster after using acid.

do you put anything on after you clean with ac coil cleaner?
do you scrubb this stuff in or just spay and rinse?
where can I find this stuff?

No I just rinse well, being sure to rinse trailer well. Go to your local heat & Air supplier. I use Lock Supply. Last I bought was near $15.00 a gallon. Follow mixing instructions 1 Gallon is plenty to do your logs.

You could order some Shark Hide from Clint ( t-birder) a member of this forum and has a great product. Some even go farther and polish the logs to a high luster and then use shark hide

Does Clint have a good price on the shark hide product?
How much will be needed?

Thanks for the info. I'll find a heat & air shop to ge the coil cleaner.
