I get the point, and it seems like your ideas may be the answer to the problem.
The part is DOM (using a pretty old CNC-lathe for the job). Im using a 16 cm diameter aluminium rod, 6012 Alloy. I checked the alloy up with the seller and they said its a good alloy for anodizing. The part is about 15 cm in diameter when finished. Anyway, ive checked the finish on the surface of the part after the lathe-process in microscope, and yes the surface is pretty rugged. So if i get this right, i need to sand the part until i get rid of that "texture" on the part after the lathe-process? A lower speed on the lathe should also be a step in the right direction - since i would result in a better finish?
Thanks for the help, really appreciate it.
