'62 globetrotter interior aluminum grade?

Curious if anyone can tell me if I'm right that the Interior aluminum won't polish like the exterior, I have removed the zolatone and if I recall that's the deal right,?? Different grade aluminum that doesn't polish crazy ?

That's awesome if true I remember reading that the inside was a different type of aluminum used so it wouldn't polish as well ? Maybe that was later years?
