I polish a lot of aluminum parts but it's hard to get a Chrome like finish because the aluminum is so soft and easy to scratch.
I do clear coat most of my aluminum.
I replaced an aluminum water pump because it looked dirty on my Cobra motor. I clear coated the new pump and it looks good years later.
On some aluminum I just bead blast it and clear coat because polishing it so time consuming.

What do you clear coat it with?
