However i ran into a green coating on top of the aluminum that no stripper will disolve , any one have any idea what it is and how to get rid of it 

Lol just give up and sand it smooth and spray some appliance paint on it.

I think the green coating is a primer.
If I remember right (from past threads), you want to try and leave it on.

I could be wrong.
Does this sound familiar to anybody else?

Edit: I just reread you plan to polish it.
Nevermind

Too late for that lol guess ill just paint it again !

So the stripping pads worked great! It took me about 2 hours with smoke breaks and a six pack ! The second pad is a really light foam pad that removed almost all of the scratches from the ez strip pad , the pictures are after 2 coats of metal polish and 25 min of medium polish with a drill and buffing wheel

That looks good! Polishing anything that never was polished before flat sucks. I did a few of these a while back for my work truck, never again...

Looks good
