Since the Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar, the last day of a year is also called lunar New Year's Eve (Traditional Chinese: å¤§å¹´å¤, Pinyin: dÃ niÃ¡nyÃ¨, translated: old, large, huge, major, important year's night).
Aluminum corrodes but it does not rust. Rust refers only to iron and steel corrosion. Aluminum is actually very prone to corrosion. However, aluminum corrosion is aluminum oxide, a very hard material that actually protects the aluminum from further corrosion. Aluminum oxide corrosion also looks a lot more like aluminum (dull gray to powdery white in color), so it isn't as easy to notice as rusted iron.
Hello Terps! The first step toward repainting your aluminum window casings is to remove existing flake until the loose pieces are completely gone. Then use Phosphoric Etch as a cleaner / etcher to prepare the metal for priming. Use Rust-Oleum Clean Metal Primer as your base coat. It is an interior / exterior rated, oil-base primer intended for use on aluminum. You can use any topcoat over this primer, but I would suggest using one of Rust-Oleum's oil-based paints with the Stops Rust icon on the label.
