I've heard of Draino being used before, but never tried it myself.

Thanks man.
YOu know you might just call a shop that does anodizing, I'm sure they have a process for reversing it. I just had an anodized part polished out, but didn't think to ask them how they did it.

I live in Guam and no one does anodizing out here, so I guess I am out of luck......I hope the draino works though.......
