Default Metal polishers

HI ... anyone know of a good metal polisher

I have a US product, its has 2 hydrofoil wings, these are made out of
billet aluminium ... here is pic of one of them (new)

After good polishing I had then anodized (salt water use) been great
but after a few years use the trailing edge which is thin down to almost
knife edge, has become dinged.

IN US you can send wings to several places, they refurbish and they come
back as new - with a new Ano finish if required.

Getting them anodized is no issue, but wan to get them refurbished to
take out dents and dings in edges.

Anybody know of a place that does such work in UK ?


Here is a pic of such a service in US (shipping makes it too expensive)

Did you try your local alloy wheel refurbisher?
