I, myself love the look of aluminum. Brushed aluminum, that is. I think that ‘warm’ color that aluminum shows, vs the slightly harsher, ‘cooler’-silver appearance stainless steel and chrome usually impart, is preferable.

Over these many years I have personally removed coatings on assorted aluminum products and components and have always used (green) Scotchbrite as my primary finisher. Or if it came with merely a clear coat, or nothing, the Scotchbrite was still called upon!

It is easy as heck to use, cheap as dirt and can be employed quickly and easily when a small touch-up, or big-job refinish is required.

Anyway, I obviously realize it doesn’t provide that highly polished, mirror finish many like or even prefer, but for me it fills the bill.
