I totally agree and know that an anodized finish is simply a chemically finished aluminum surface. What I am struggling with is the clear coat or clear powder coating that has been applied afterwards.

skiddz, for how long do you leave in on? Do you place it in the sun to "bake" or not needed? Thanks!

bigfishon1 when you use oven cleaner I found it worked best to heat the metal your working on before hand. When I did my atv rims I just took my heat gun to them first. I did do 1 whitout heating it to see what would happen and it didn't work so well. U can also use a brass wheel it doesn't put deep scratchs the metal. But oven cleaner and heating up the metal worked the best for me and the fastest. Just read the directions on the oven cleaner it even suggest preheating your oven.
