I was killing time at work so I made a license plate frame and eybrow light to go with my rear tire carrier. I need to find a good product to seal it with. Any ideas?

Why would you seal aluminum? Chrome it, anodize it, powdercoat or paint it with epoxy-based paint.

Maybe seal was the wrong word, How about ..Any good products to clear coat aluminum with? I can't powder coat it because of the engraving on it, Powdercoat would fill it in.

Look for a good quality epoxy-based spray-on clearcoat.

Beautiful machining/engraving.
That looks very nice. Why do anything? Polish it.

Thanks, As soon as the weather breaks here I will try to polish it and see how it holds up. I am in the process of making some hood pulls. I am thinking of black powder for them
