Car Craft magazine has had several articles over the years showing the techniques used in restoring aluminum trim that are helpful. Using that information, I have done some work that turned out pretty good on some mid-60s GM trim. It takes patience, patience, patience. (Which means lots of time!) It also helps if you can find some one who does "bright" anodizing to restore the chrome-like finish. Polishing alone will oxidize easily and requires regular maintenance.
