Tips on Keeping Parts Shiny
Hey CD,
So I'm sure this is something that a lot of teams encounter, and its definitely something that occurs in industry quite frequently...
You machine yourself a beautiful looking part. You clean it up, sand it, scotch-brite it and after a few hours or days the part looks dull again (it oxidized). I'm referring specifically to aluminum parts, but it has occurred with other materials too. I was wondering if anyone had a tip on sealing parts that have been polished or cleaned. There are sealants you can buy, but my inclination was telling me theres gotta be some tips out there. So, anyone got anything?
Brando
