Oh damn, this thread has just reminded me, I was supposed to find out the details of a place near me for Diesel ages ago. Sorry chap, I'll get on it tomorrow.

I looked into possibly buying one of the home anodizing kits.... eazy peazy....

Only thing is I don't want the chemicals involved anywhere near my house, some really nasty stuff to store.

Different maybe if I had a workshop away from the house.

Will do Jay

I'm taking a Dia Compe sample piece along with me to make sure I get the right shade as I dont' want any dark gold or orange parts. Hopefully, they can get a good result

I'll keep you posted

You're right Diesel, those acids aren't very house friendly and there are strict government regulations for disposing of it too

Is it star ano ?, if so i have used them and they did my wheels proud so highly recomended

they can match any gold , but run only specific dyes at any one time , i did my arayas black and they were spot on , and the finnish will depend on the prep you put on the alloy.
