A local firm in Albuquerque anodized some new pieces for me, but the result=
s were so bad I had the anodize removed and just polished them. I figure at=
this point in its life the old girl may appreciate some additional pamperi=
ng in the form of periodically polishing the alloy trim.
I don't know if the problem was in the anodizing process, the new alloy mat=
erials or my preparation work. They no longer do the process called "bright=
anodizing" so in order to get decent result you need to polish the parts t=
o a very high gloss and then have it "clear anodized". Mine came out kind o=
f grayish with dark streaks running through it. Again these were new pieces=
from Moss.
For now I can get by with some aluminum polish and elbow grease applied a f=
ew times a year. As a bonus it is easy to eliminate new scratches by workin=
g them out with emery cloth and re-polishing them. Can't do that with an an=
odized layer.
