Re-anodizing outriggers is it worth it or possible?

I agree with the two part Poly or powder coating. You can do either of these for cheap and it will look great. You can paint them to match your hull or do a complimentary color. Wax them every now and then and they will look great for years. If you try to clean them you are always going to be fighting a loosing battle.

My lean post was all pitted aluminum when I bought my boat. I tried to clean it and polish it...it just never really got there. I was thinking about powder coating it but wasn't sure what color I wanted so I just primed it and rattle canned it SAND to get a feeling for it. It looked so good that I left it like that and it has held up surprisingly well for the last 3 years. Eventually I am going to strip it and have it powder coated the same color.

Good luck.
