anodizing kits

anyone used one at home, or in the shop? i was thinking of doing my own parts to cut back in costs. thanks.

Look up Caswell and www.e-clec-tech.com Like you I have been thinking the same thing for a while. There is a few forums for it also. If you do it soon, let us know the results.

thanks les. it wont be soon.....i would just rather do it myself and save some bucks. ill let yall know.

Saw a sight the other day, don't have the link, but the guy was talking about making his with a battery charger and some sulfuric acid, didnt sound to expensive.

Its called warpig.com anodizing at home, by jim bowles has alot of good info, wish I could do a direct link up with the site but not that computer savy

Depending on application, might also be interested in diy Gun-Kote.

Good Fortune!

We've a couple of customers using the Caswell setup. I saw a few parts done using the Caswell kit and they looked good.

year www.warpig.com will have info. All paintball guns are finished with ano, I played with it once upon a time, but it was far cheaper (and you got better results) to just send it out to the flavor of the month ano company.

The common coloring agent back then for the DIY guys was RIT dye, all you really need is the dye, a power source and some chemicals. If you have a failed attempt mix up some common crystalized drain cleaner and water... a dip in that will strip ano off in a few seconds.
