Thanks Greg, will that stuff dull the stainless spokes too? I guess I could mask them off.

I havent seen it do anything to SS at all.

Aluma Bright does contains hydrofluoric acid and should be handled with care and proper safety equipment used.
Always follow the instructions and test it on an inconspicuous area.
Your results may vary.
I am not a paid representative of Aluma Bright and will not be held liable.

I did the Commando front disk hub this afternoon. I think it turned out pretty good, probably because I had to turn it at a faster speed due to a broken belt / hurried change up kinda thing. I gotta fix it cause the rear hub didnt like spinning that fast.

Jean, And I thank you for it. It was in great shape to begin with so it didn't take very long to get it looking like this.
