I tried to use Birchwood Casey's Aluminum Black to darken the engraving on my (about to be stamped) SBR lower.  I could not get the small lines of the letters to darken.  I tried using a soft brush to work the solution into the letters and wound up taking off some of the anodizing.  I followed the instructions as well as I could, using alcohol to clean the area, rinsing it thoroughly, and letting the solution sit for at least a minute (over 5 minutes in one attempt) and nothing seemed to happen.  What  am I doing wrong?
