    Thanks! I sandblasted the aluminum, painted it using 2 component base for epoxy and polyurethane, then coated 2 times with polyurethane. Then sanded various papers till 2000 grit. I think the base coat did that most of all.

    I am seriously considering using powder paint next time. I think that will be the most durable coating for the kind of badge i do.
