Question:

I washed an aluminum pan in the dishwasher, it doesn't look shiney any more.?

Is there something I can re- wash it with that will make it shiney again?

Answer:

The real answer is: your aluminum pan should not be shiny after you wash itOne reason reason why aluminum has excellent corrosion resistance is because of a thin layer of Aluminium oxide that forms on the outside of the metalThis is also referred to as alumina and it is an extremely hard compoundAluminium oxide is an abrasive with many usesIt is an ingredient found in toothpasteI have had an aluminum pan for years and it is ugly, but it is cleanIf there is soap scum on your pan, simply rinse it with water and wipe with a paper towel.- Goodluck! Don't worry!
For the 2007 Fusion, Ford is attacking Honda and ToyotaOnly problem with this is that if all three cars sell for $25,000, in 2 years the 2007 Fusion will be worth about $9000, while the Honda and Toyota will be worth around $15,000Based on this, I'd get a 2006 since it's already depreciated dramatically.
I've had an 2006 and now I have an 072007 has AWD, navigation, sirius satellite, rear spoiler and iPod portI like the 07 a lot betterThere are always downsides to getting a car the first year it is in productionThere were little quirks in my 06 that are not in my 07.
There are many cosmetic differences, but only 1 big one I'm aware ofSide air bags are now standard in the 2007, and have increased their safety rating dramaticallyAnother nice feature is the addition of the IPod jack, so you can plug your IPod or other MP3 player in and play it through your stereoIf that's important, just double check to make sure it's thereThe earliest 2007 models didn't have it.
