Title: Conditioning Hank's Aluminum
Post by: MikeStaten on May 03, 2016, 07:31:59 PM
What are you using to condition Hanks anodized aluminum?  Call sounds amazing when freshly conditioned with scotch brite it but seems to lose it quickly.  Thinking of running some fine sandpaper over it but don't want to mess it up.

If its the slick anodized aluminum,  I just use a green scotchbrite pad and also sometimes use pool cue chalk on my striker tip.  Scoot

Don't know why I didn't think about doing that as that's what I do with my Lonzo acrylic.   Will give it a shot.  Thanks

Try lightly sanding the striker tip then add a little drop of super glue and them rub your chalk on the glued tip.

Take it one step further and order yourself some rain chalk. It's the best for box calls, striker tips, and even striking surfaces.
