Hello all, I picked up a nice, straight 68 valiant grill at carlisle and was wondering the best way to go about polishing it up. It has what i would call oxidation marks in a few different areas. thanks -Andy

Pretty time consuming process.

You might want to try fine steel wool or a little wenol to see what happens.

Otherwise, strip the whole piece of all the brite dip anodizing (easy off, eastwood stuff, pro shop), then sand and polish the bare aluminun. Then repaint the black and/or silver portions.
