i recently polished a pair ofspring hangers that had a very coarse finish on them.i started with 180 grit on a palm sander to get the big areas.a diegrinder w coarse sanding disks got the nooks+crannies,and worked up to 400 grit.in all,it took 14 hours to do 2 hangers(once the sanding was done,the polishing was cake)there are few shortcuts when it comes to polishing,but the diegrinder really works well on coarse aluminum.i have seen a couple try's at clearcoating,but #1 i dont like how it looks,and#2 it doesn't hold up very well.i prefer to just keep on re-polishing,once you get something buffed out,it dosent take much to keep it up
