Anyone know how to remove anodising without cocking up the surface underneath?
I seriously doubt it! |

Paul, I've done quite a bit of this at home. You can simply use caustic soda in water. Will only take a few mins On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

That was for striping, but doing large things like bumpers would work out cheaper to get done by the pro's On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

Jim, I've done some electrolitical de-rusting with a battery charger as a little experiment.

Work very well. Did you do it this way? Did you also do plating yourself -> more details? Han Han, I'll get some photo's of my process next time I do it. it uses caustic soda, battery acid, brake cleaner, lead, battery charger, central heating header tank, clothes dye and a tea urn.

My elementary chemistry tells me that if you put aluminium in caustic soda it will fizz a lot and disappear completely in quite a short time.
