Revolver Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 I've seen rainbow effect anodized parts, but never striped anodizing. I guess it might be possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIGAN Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 i did it using caustic soda on my zoo cranksreally?, this didnt work for me i had to just sand it off cos i thought anodising bonds it to the metal ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 It's a sort-of bond.Caustic soda works because it chews into the surface of the metal a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
