Hi,
I have to polish 20 alu porsche lugs, but they are all black or alu anodized and it is very hard to get the anodize layer off, does anybody knows a trick or maybe somebody nows where I can find special lugs ready to polish?
Thanks.

Gabbard is right on the money... I've been using EasyOff Oven Cleaner to remove anodizing since I was racing bmx back in the late '70s. Still use it on my fishing stuff that I don't want gold (YUCK!) and various car parts for peoples' cars that I detail. Can't beat the look of polished raw aluminum.

I have a company that does anodizing close to my work, and they just reverse the process to remove anodizing... easy and fast!
