I need to strip chrome from aluminum?

[RedRiver]

FLY :

The grey color is a etching affect.

RedRiver :

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!!

Hmmm...I really didn't think I was being rude...I appologize if you've been offended Fly. That's the problem with forums and cummunication via text, its so impersonal. The reader is left to determine the emotion within the text and it is so often interpreted incorrectly. I wasn't trying to slap you on the wrist Fly...Infact, I'm pretty sure that I mentioned that I appreciate your input...

Cheers bud!
