Polished aluminum
#21
Gix, is your comment directed towards my interest in hiding the cast settlement marks on my engine covers? Cause if it is, I will try. Only if it don;t end up shiny tho LOL. Thanks!

Semi off topic since I try to avoid shine. And prefer a more matt finish.
so I avoid using polish and waxes.
instead I have been using stele wool in the 00.00 and .00 grit
Of ourse all spots dissapere and the matt finish eventually developes a darker pattina which I love.
The only problem is those pesky cast swirls and hat are deeply imbedded in to the alloy.
Only thing I can think of to do to try and mask them would be to use a brass wire brush. But I'm a bit scared I might ruin them

I use Gords for all my aluminum. Hit his website and read his 'how to'.
