You want to be extra careful with it, if you are looking to attempt some dent removals or straightening, try light mallet tapping on a scrap piece of aluminum first, this will give you an idea of the kind of force needed, patience, patience and more patience! For buffing or polishing, I would try Mother's Alum. Polish. Good Luck! posted:  August 19, 2008
