If anyone is still interested in Aluminum anodizing. This is who did all the aluminum on my 66 SS. His work is phenominal.

Bill, I used Anobrite for re-anodizing) on a recommendation from Haislip and I was very happy with the results. Price was reasonable too.

George,

Do you offer re-anodizing services for aluminum trim or do you just remove the original anodizing and then polish the piece?

Re: Aluminum finishing/anodizing
 
George polished the aluminum moldings that go around the top of the doors. A couple of them were scratched pretty bad. He did a real nice job. All the scratches are gone, and they shine like new. I removed the anodizing, but he will do it if you need it done. He does not re-anodize, but when I saw the moldings polished, I couldn't think of a good reason to anodize them anyway. They look perfect. A quick hand polish a couple time each season, should be all they need. What George doesn't know (until he reads this), is that I screwed up one of the moldings putting it on the door. I have another one that will fit better, but it's got to be polished like the others.
