Trouble with aluminum is that it will oxidize quickly in normal atmosphere, so it won't really stay oxide free very long. But as far as removing the oxide there are several options:
- fine sand-paper
- stainless steel wire brush.
- Brillo pads
- Media(sand) blastin
Ther might be some etching solution that's powerful enough, but I've never tried that.

What is name of the compound Al2O3?
Al is the symbol for Aluminum and O is the symbol for oxygen. When oxygen is paired in a compound, it is changed to oxide. The name then is aluminum oxide.

No, aluminum oxide is not metallic. But aluminum is.
What is the definition of aluminum oxide Aluminum Oxide refers in particular to Fused Aluminum Oxide or Fused Alumina herehttpwwwiabrasivecomproductsabrasive-grains?
The definition of aluminum oxide is various forms of aluminum oxide. This only occurred naturally as corundum.
Is aluminum oxide a mixture?
No, Aluminum oxide is a pure substance.
Does aluminum plus iodine forms aluminum oxide?
Aluminum and oxygen form aluminum oxide. Aluminum and iodine form aluminum iodide.
What is the chemical formula for Al203?
Al2O3 is the chemical formula of aluminium oxide.
What is the chemical formula for aluminum oxide when heated?
Aluminum oxide is Al2O3 and when heated it is still Al2O3, so heating aluminum oxide does nothing to it.
Does aluminum oxide rust?
Yes. In fact, aluminum oxidizes faster than almost any other metal, which is why aluminum foil will, actually, remove rust: The abrasion removes the coating of aluminum oxide that covers all metallic aluminum exposed to the air, and the exposed aluminum metal wants to be oxidized so badly that it will actually steal oxygen from iron oxide, AKA rust, and reduce it back to iron metal. Which is why aluminum foil will, in fact, remove rust. This reaction, interestingly, is the same one that makes thermite work.
What is the common name of Al2O3?
