Metal grille coating
I did a grill restore on my 67 Dart last winter; it was a lot of fussy time consuming work, but well worth it. This winter I tackle the GT trunk panel.
Once you get the factory anodizing off, you will probably need to deal with some imperfections in the aluminum. This can be accomplished with normal hammer and dolly dent repair than dressing rough spots to blend in with a fine cut mill basted file, and working up through various grits of wet/dry sand paper to 2000 grit, finishing off with something like Mothers all metal polish, and clear coat. It will take a lot of elbow grease, but take your time and it will look showroom new when finished.
Headlight surrounds were all dented up; I did not remove much of anodizing, just feathered and blended with clear coat after dent removal, and smoothing surface on leading edges smoothing, then repainted black.
