Re: [FWDLK] Any recommendations for re-anodizing of aluminum trim?



I should have also mentioned that right on top of the bill, the company 
lists their specialties as "anodizing, clear, bright dipped, etched, and 
colors". I think they told me that for the plain aluminum grilles you would 
want it "bright dipped" but I don't remember what the difference is between 
that and anodizing.
