Reducing nose piece OD by tiny amount

Hi all

I have an anodized 1.25” (measured 31.80mm) nose piece adapter. It’s anodized aluminium. Unfortunately it’s not fitting into my baader click lock (luck of the draw with click lock slightly narrower ID and the APM adapter slightly on larger size). I need to remove 0.05mm.

Being anodized, What is best way of doing it apart from re-machining and anodizing. Sandpaper? Unsure what grit? I just want to go slowly as I think I’m very close so minimise damage to the anodised surface.

APM telling me it’s to spec and it’s my problem/Baader. I checked with Baader and the person I spoke to has one and it fits all the click locks they have. Same with a person on CN. seems mine is out of spec.

Many thanks.
