Restoring a 90's CBR aluminium frame / swingarm

[AceOfHearts]

How do people go about restoring an anodized aluminum frame (from a 1992 CBR in this case)?

Im sure people know the finish can get dull and tatty. Is the best way to just get it polished, or are there companies out there that can strip the anodizing and refinish to factory standard?

Ive been thinking anout re anodising a frame, but who can do a proper job ?

We use these for our colour anodising, the quality of their work has to be seen to be believed

No doubt that would be easy and still look great but I am going to be looking for an as near factory finish as possible
