I need to remove the factory red anodizing on a Mag tail cap down to the bare aluminum. What is the best way to do this?? Thanks.

Well I have a tail cap sitting in a weak solution of Draino. How long does it take? overnight??

I put my cap in straight draino for 10 min and used a plastic brush to remove most of the anodizing,and stuck it back in for a few min more to finnish.

The length of time it takes depends on the strength of the solution. It took me less than 10 minutes, I'd say.

PS: Hope you're wearin' gloves & goggles!
