Great Screw Up, Try It
I am freshining up the interior on my 61, my aluminum trim was beyond cleaning and this being a driver, not a show car I was not going to spring for new trim. I got rust-oleum aluminun high performance enamel to spray the trim, tried Alumi Blast but it was too dark. My first 2 pieces I cleaned with a fine scotch pad and washed with prepsol. The color was ok but too shiney and they looked painted, On my third I forgot to wash with prepsol and it fish eyed, I grabbed a rag and wiped off the paint and I could not believe my eyes the finish looked like fresh aluminum. I tried it on another piece and got the same results. If your trim looks tired take advantage of my screw up you will be impressed with the results
