Im not sure you can do it cos its got steel rollers that are pressed in. Any Steel will desolve (or get very messed up) in the anodising bath.

What Alex said, perhaps a Tamiya model paint or glass paint would be a better alternative to ano although I think they only did them in white, black and silver bitd  :-\

Apparently also available in blue AND red  :yahoo_silent:

This glass paint might do the job, think it was fraz4130 who used it on something a while back.

It looked good but don't know how durable it'd be.

I had a white fly brake that I wanted black. Its got pressed in brass bushes so I couldnt get it anodised.
I went over it with a black marker pen.  ;)

Those blue ones were painted. I remember them now. I cant think if they came in different colours tho.
