If its a real anodized alum. finish, shouldn't be damaged--anodizing is a physical change to the actual metal to oxidize it in a controlled manner. So, the finish isn't "applied"--its actually the metal itself, only harder. The problem might be that there is some overcoat on top of the anodization, like a clearcoat or something, that might be dulled. Highly second the "test in an unobtrusive area" suggestions...
Paint Removal?
A strange question, I'm sure...
But,
I'd like to remove the gold paint (or other silk screened ink) from the face of a preamp for aesthetic reasons. It appears to be on a black anodized aluminium plate and I am concerned that paint remover might damage the aluminium.
Anyone do this or have ideas?
Thanks,
