i just bought the aluminium one and it seems much thicker and stronger and has grooves in it to get rid of the heat easier. And it is silver

I use caustic soda to de anodize my stuff. With rubber gloves , goggles and and old toothbrush to scrub it off. Works on all colours too. Just leave it to fizz then fish it out and a quick scrub under cold running water and its all silver. Bit of polishing up after for some nice shiney bling

Do you re-coat them with anything afterwards?
