Was that the left or right nut?

My concern is that perhaps the anodized layer is still there and you have only removed the dye.

Rub your finger on the aluminum several hundred pases, if it turns back, then you are on raw aluminum.

try to polish it up. if after a minute or so under the polishing wheel its still dull and flat looking then you still have an ano layer on.

Sry, off topic.
Good to find more ways of getting the anodizing off. The caustic is some nasty stuff.
