Sufficiently pure aluminum is superconducting at 1.2 Kelvin. Many of the pure elements are superconductors at sufficiently low temperatures, but some of them require special conditions, such as platinum. Platinum doesn't superconduct unless it's in nanoparticles.

Yes, aluminum is a conductor, however, you need to use an abrasive to remove any paint, die or other coating, to get direct contact with the metal.
