Re: new tool box!!

To polish it up, go to your local truck stop and see if they have some polish called "White Diamond". You may have to buy an applicator pad too, but it works wonders on aluminum.

Re: new tool box!!

I would be willing to bet that that box is "bright annodized", which would mean that you can't really polish it with out ruining the surface.
I would look into wheel cleaners that are safe for such things. A good cleaning may be all it needs.

Re: new tool box!!

As far as the key, look for a number stamped in the lock some place, then call Husky with that number and they can provide a key for you, you might even get a whole new lock from them

Re: new tool box!!

That's a nice looking box. My dad has one in his 2006 swb Sierra he just bought. I'm thinking of getting one for my truck.
