same thing Mike, keep it lubricated - working aluminum heats it so it's melting the dust/chips as fast as they're made .... some wd40 or cutting oil should reduce the buildup, tho you'll always have some cleanup to do, for which a file card [the wire brush sorta tool] can work - fiberglas or plastic working tools have the same problem, and a file card is handy for that too thumbs_up
