for my drip rails i did this. draino mixed in water will take the anodizing right off. i made a troft from a 4" pvc pipe and two end caps glued on sliced it length wise used hot water and draino checking often in about 5 minutes it was stripped. removed any dents by tapping them out from the back lightly. file carefully the little bump out you make. wet sand smooth. polish. came out stunning. aluminum is soft so it polishes the easiest. now i need to clear them with eastwood diamond clear or use that product i forget the name for that coats and protects for a very long time zymol or something. or get them re anodized the most costly alternative. for now they are indoors and safe. these parts are off my 65 gto.
