Listers,

I'm would like to try and remove some scratches from the grille for my
TR4.
Its made of anodized aluminum and from what another list member told me,
it doesn't work to try and just polish it.  Any suggestions on how to
proceed here?

TIA

Ther is no problem polishing it.  It will remove the anodization though.
It is also difficult to get the anodized portions and newly polished areas
to match.  After polishing the entire grill, you should be able to find a
local shop to "Bright Dip" anodize the grill again.
