aluminum is relatively soft. oh and by the way, i can sand steel as well. i know as ive done it...many times lol

stop posting in this thread as you have no knowledge on metals or materials. that much is apparent:cool:

to everyone in this thread: dont take anything danvan21 says concerning metals as fact. i think he's just trolling to get everyone to waste their time correcting him

yea, im a troller trying to get people to correct me. Oh this is so much fun. Earth is the 2nd planet from the sun too and duke bound likes girls. Im just a lier, i know.

Liars know the idiocy they spread is false You think yours is true. Big difference there. You're not a liar, because you believe your own spew.

then how come is everyone in this thread that is pointing your "info" as flat out wrong

face it, you just dont know what youre talking about. its ok to be wrong but to keep insisting youre right when youre clearly not is childish

Earth is the 2nd planet from the sun

not different than your claim about aluminum. that being its wrong. whats sad is that you say that in jest but are serious on the aluminum and refuse to accept being corrected.


anyways op: yes you can sand it. however id use a fine grit to not have it rough

best of luck!
 
Enough. I've taken an anodized aluminum ring and some 400 sand paper. Know what? Scratched.

I'm into making chain mail, and lot of people use anodized aluminum, which easily scratch if you have pliers with tooth.

Photoshopped - obvious to the most casual observer.;)

Yes I used photoshop, only to put the pictures together. And why would I lie about a ring that got scratched? Why would I lost time to photoshop it scratched when I obviously don't have the talent to make it look real?
 
Certainly not, sir!

I carried out my own experiment - trying to scratch or polish down a diamond with some toilet paper.

Diamond used:

Toilet paper used:

Result - a deep groove was cut in the diamond, but I used so much toilet paper that the lint built up into a giant ball around the diamond:

I rest my case. Aluminium stands no chance.
