Default Plated Aluminum
What is a good way to remove Chrome plating from Aluminum? I have a cold air intake pipe for my car that has numerous scratches and pitting, and I want to remove plating and polish out flaws. Will media blasting remove the plating and give me a good base to start the polishing process?
