Started Anodizing....

Arkais · Jun 17, 2014

I just started Anodizing a short time ago and thought I'd show some of my work. Maybe you all might have some tips and tricks for me

I'm pretty limited in my set up right now. I don't have the ability to bead blast at this time sadly so I'm really only set up with a 120v power supply. I use distilled water and tsp mixture and multi etch.

I like what you did with the ZT801. The two-tone anodizing looks great!

What's the bare minimums as far as equipment go for anodizing?
I'd really like to try it out.

9v batteries, gator clips, aluminum foil, diet Pepsi/coke, and use nail polish for multi color.

If a kid can do it, so can you; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOV5A22t4oY

That's how I did this kizer.

That 801 looks really familiar...maybe because it's in my pocket! Great work man, you do an excellent job!
