Did you polish and then

powercoat, or is that just red and black paint paint. What's the scoop. Looks awesome

Thanks for the compliment. I first cleaned it up pretty good, sanded in stages down to 1000 / 1500 grit, the gave it Mothers.

The painted areas were not polished, but thoroughly cleaned, then primed, then painted with a good high-temp paint. I then sanded (second time) with a block over the letters and ridges to bring back the metal. Painted areas, lettering, and ridges were then clear coated with high-temp. The balance of it is bare metal with the medium polish that you see.... I don't think I will be clear coating that due to possible paint adhesion problems on polished aluminum. I'm working on another too, but media blasting instead of polishing. That one will get some paint like the first one and clear coat overall in the end.
