3101: Can you sand aluminum parts that come into contact with game elements in order to reduce friction?

We'd like to sand some 5x25 aluminum plate that comes into contact with blocks, in order to reduce friction. We would sand down to a grit of probably 300-600 using an orbital sander. Can we do that?

Yes.
