The grey color is a etching affect.

9. The nickle and copper are removed when the color fades from black, bronze to dull grey (this is the aluminum etching - I think). Rinse the part and re-polish or treat as desired.

Fly...Thanks for your input but perhaps you should go back and read my post. To start with, my last post concerning the process wasn't a question, it was a detailed and informative layout of how I easily and successfully stripped my chrome plated aluminum parts. It was so easy and so effective that I intend to utilize this process each and everytime I need to strip chrome plate from aluminum. Secondly, I never once made mention of replating the aluminum parts...Infact, I was stripping the chrome so I could then go ahead and anodize them...For this, obviously the nickle would need to be removed and the copper underneath that.
I appreciate you trying to help but next time perhaps you should follow along with the thread before clicking the "Submit Reply" button.
Cheers!!
