Will it work on aluminum?

It depends on what you are trying to clean I suppose. I would recommend aluminum polish if you want a true shine with aluminum. Aluminum polish has ultra fine grit in its polishes. The back of the bottle specifically says "Weiman stainless steel cleaner and polish is specially formulated to clean, shine and polish stainless steel. Removes fingerprints, smudges, residue and grease. Protective coating repels dust and dirt. Leaves a brilliant streak-free shine." so I would say no, don't waste the money. Go get an aluminum polish but ask an associate based on what you are trying to clean, and be sure you're actually right thinking it is aluminum... Wear gloves and a microfiber cloth you are OK parting with when using aluminum polish. Otherwise, you will have the black oxidation layers all over your hands. Hope this helps!

Probably not since it's made for Aluminum cans and is primarily made of heavy gage plastic. I've never tried using it for that but suspect that would wear it out much faster, if not causing it to break. But ir works great for aluminum cans!

Not for Aluminum, I use mine for steal stick welding and I love it . works as good as my red buzz box and its smaller than my lunch box

It is for soldering electrical wire. I do not think it would work for metal or aluminum.

I think that it can do it, the blade is aggressive, however I do not know how long it will stand up to the aluminum. It is very accurate for the money, good luck.

Miguel, I bought this blade for cutting hardwood for a floor. Have not tried it on aluminum. I have cut aluminum in the past and liked to use a non carbide blade (fine tooth) and installed backwards so the teeth do not rip the metal up. Hope this is of some help. Brian

I use mine on bronze brass and aluminum regularly making finer adjustments in the surface. Hard grinding on a grinding wheel on the bench next to this device. The two machines work well together.

I am sure that it will cut plastic tubing but I would not try cutting aluminum with these blades. They might work once but I think they would dull very fast on aluminum. Hope this helps.............

Haven't tried aluminum, but 1/16 304 stainless sheets with .035 309 ss flux core wire seems to work well.

Never tried it on aluminum. Works great on brass and stainless steel. Surfaces with an already polished finish should be the best option.

I suppose it would work on anything that you could drill a hole and mount it on. It works best on a flat surface.

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't, as long as the cars are made of a magnetic metal. Aluminum is a non-magnetic metal. If the cars are aluminum, it won't work.

We just use ours for aluminum. O625" thick max. It does OK. on that, but no thicker. The smaller the hole the easier it works. If you are doing mass quantities, I would look to another method.

This product cannot be used on aluminum. It will ruin the metal. Check first what metal is used and if it is not aluminum, you should be fine.

it should clean aluminum safely, i use it on all types of pans. it truly is the best.

Yep, no problem. I've used it on plastic as well as other materials. It is such a thin layer with rich metallic color that it works on almost any surface.

I do not think so. You must dip the metal in liquid to make it work. I did not think it worked that great on metal either.
