As you’ve discovered acetone and other solvents will not work.
I’ll leave this in case anyone else has the same question.
This link contains a video describing a process to do it…
Anyone ever try De Anodizing a Bi Metal? Advice greatly appreciated!

On a tangent of the original question: if you de-anodize one side of the yoyo, would this throw off the weight distribution or anything of the entire yoyo?
I’m pretty sure not, since I’ve seen people put two totally different yoyos together, but I have no experience.

I did a new breed/ dark magic 2 combo for a bit. Okay, well I may try it out
You can check my post. I tried one side de-anodize a MYY T5, and I can tell you from my experience it did not.

Did not affect play or did not work?

Stripping one side will not affect play.
The anodized layer is only approximately 15 microns thick, removing such a small amount of material shouldn’t mess with it at all.

So it wouldn’t effect it either if I deanodized the bearing seat and such?

So I finally had time to do this today. Do you guys like it or think I should take the rest off the middle?

Thanks I personally like it but I had so many people that told me to take the rest off… Only matters what I think, right
If i deanodise my gradient will it retain its smoothness? And if i have to polish it to keep it smooth do i have to keep polishing it?

My dv888 is still really smooth after I deanodized half of it…
And can i de ano the bearing seat and the side effect seat
Did this the other night. If you strip the ano, it changes the dimensions, though minor. Also, it’s more susceptible to corrosion. But if you keep an eye on it, should be good.

de-anodizing with caustic soda
on partial de-anodizing like these, there is the small problem that the part with anodizing creates a very small step with that discolored, then the grind-tricks yoyo loses performance
