You cannot fill in the pitting with some sort of bondo and powder coat over it.must be bare metal . You can smooth out some of the pitting so it isn't as noticeable when powder coated . Did that with some over head grab rails in black and it looks and feels 100% better. You will see any and all imperfections that are bigger than a pinhead . Sort of like the 8' ft paint job on a car ,looks great from 8 ,start looking at it close up and ....My brother-in - law in Florida has a 33 ft. World-cat with anodized aluminum t-top, pitted from saltwater….his plan is to remove it, sand off corrosion and powder coat the entire top in a white color to match the boat….sounds like a lot of work but it should look good when complete….maybe powder coat your parts would be a possible solution?….
