Re: Polished tailgate band

I used Easy Off oven cleaner. Layed it flat so the cleaner wouldn't run off. Then I sprayed the oven cleaner until the surface was real latherered up. Let it soak about 5 minutes then rinse off. After it dries it will be kind of crusty, rub that off with 00 steel wool. I did that process twice, then polished it out with Mothers brand mag and aluminum polish. You have to remove the anodized coating before you can polish it, that's what the Easy Off does. There may be a better way but I already had the all the supplies. I used black pinstriping for the edges, the cleaner eats the paint off
