Hey thanks, yep LOL I was thinking the same , but man sanding all the grooves, Holy cow. maybe I will dab it with TSP to prep for paint.
your right the black end caps finish the touch of color scheme

thanks for compliments
Yea I have used castrol , man is it powerful, it will take paint of car wheels fast. anodize is a chemical bonding, I would not say that is not tough.
I have used oven cleaner on aluminum small part and rapped in aluminum foil, it pitted it something awfull and I watched it and still did not remove all of it./
I found a few search results about anodize removal, but unless you do a proper mix of chemicals other home remedies dont work.
