I have put a mirror finish on the aluminum part I am working on, now what. Is there a sealer or, or anodizing or what ever that I can do to keep the mirror finish on it?
Thanks in advance.

would work if I could aford it. The part is about 1" x 1.5" by .25", too small for zoopseal. would something like Flitz work just as well?.

OK so I posted the pic in the polishing album. As you can see they are "shiny", but I think they can be better, it was my first try. I still havnt seal the pieces yet, so they are starting to dull. Should I polish 1 more time before sealing.
