Do a search on this site for brushing aluminum/brushing steel/brushing metal/brush finish etc. It's been covered a few times already. Keep in mind bare aluminum corrodes easily so if you brush it you will more than likely be removing the anticorrosion surface treatment (anodize, clearcoat, paint, etc) that is already on it, which will make it corrode much quicker.
