Refinishing bronze anodized aluminium

Q. I HAVE 30 YEAR OLD ANODIZED BRONZE ALUMINIUM WINDOWS AND DOORS THAT LOOK OLD. I WANT TO REFINISH PARTS OF THE FRAMES THAT LOOK ESPECIALLY OLD. IS THERE A PAINT THAT CAN MATCH THE LOOK OF THE ORIGINAL FINISH OR WHAT SHOULD I DO?
THANKS FOR THE HELP.

A. I have a pair of Storefront doors that needed refinishing after 25 years of weather. I used "Cabinet Magic" to wipe down the frame. Amazingly, cleaned up pretty nice. I've received multiple compliments on the doors.

Faded siding or trim? Everbrite might fix it without repainting
