Ken, thank you for the info - looks like they did a fantastic job. Can u tell me what the grill cost to have anodized?

As I remember it was about $150 for Stripping, Bright Dip, and re-anodize.........

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?

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.
