Will clear powdercoat dull a polished finish? - Plating Powder Coating Buffing Anodizing

wozzwinkl · #1 (**permalink**) 09-21-2004, 07:07 PM

I have read about the clear top coat dulling the chrome PC finishes, but I am wondering if it will do the same thing to a bright, highly-polished aluminum part? Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks.

Very little dulling to aluminum. it is the best thing to put on it i think.

very little if none and no polish ever

I've done lots of polish parts for motorcycles
