Default RE: Allum. Lithoplate adhesion question

So I tried the nail polish remover. Main ingredient was acetone.

it did make it feel very clean, however did not change the finish. maybe the finish is normal but it looks like the color of a light grey primer or maybe a powder coat.

So far, paint remover, denatured alcohal, acetone, soap, silver polish, mothers allum. polish and one other polish and no change to the color or finish.

when I sand it with a few different grits it seems to come to life and I can get the allum look (ie polish) that I am used.

I guess I dont need to worry about it if the finish is truly clean, all should stick well...
