I've been sorting through the anodized aluminum trim I've collected and I have most of what I need for my car. A lot of pieces are straight and fairly free of dents and scratches, but are dull and some have paint overspray on them. Can I safely clean these up on my bench-buffer using extra fine red compound without cutting through the anodizing layer?
I tried on a scrap trim piece and it came out looking pretty nice. I don't believe it cut through the anodizing but I'm not sure how to tell. Here's a before and after comparison.
