Hi all, Just to confuse the issue: has anyone done electrolytic polishingd/ deburring.
It should work fine with diluted sulfuric acid for steel of stainless steel but on aluminum you probably get both deburring and anodizing. Not that that is bad if you don't want a bright surface. Just thinking out-loud. I did find one reference to electropolishing in various alkali hydroxides. Aluminum is amphoteric so you can etch it with either a base or an acid. You will need ventilation because of the hydrogen given off.
