Please don't strip a NOS Power Disc.   :'(

Maybe someone would trade you a polished one + some cash your way?  Got to be worth a try before you throw it into some caustic soda.   :(

Anodising is easily removed, you have 3 options....

1) Be a pussy and use Oven Pride oven cleaner.
2) Be manly and use Caustic Soda with cold water.
3) Be the manliest man ever and use Caustic Soda with hot water  ;D


Actually don't use option 3, it is nuts.
