How to keep polished aluminum

[LL - NY]

I was going to say that this list has ALWAYS been about providing advice
based upon
useful knowledge of it's members, NOT to interject personal tastes as the
ONLY way
to do things.

Your post would have been much more in the spirit of this list if you simply
provided that
bead blasting would result in this type of finish, polish would result
in...and sandpaper would
result in yadda, yadda.

Instead, you decided to publicly slam one of our long standing and well
liked list contributors.

Where I work (a theraputic boarding school) such an action would be met with
an action, a sanction, if you will.

I wonder what sanctions are availible for this list?
