Default RE: Custom anodizing

The Bloody TVP's are my favorite too. In fact they were the first attempt for two colors.

This kind of anodize gets 1 mills of thickness and the dye (color) goes no more deep then .7 mills. of course I could go thicker but for this purpose there is no need.

1 Mills = 25.4 Microns = 0.000999 Inch. The screws wont even notice.

Love the bloody tvps man looks awsome. Only problem with annodizing is it only adds about .002 to .005" to the overall thickness meaning it gets worn away rather quickly, but thats not really a big deal if you anno them yourelves. and since tvps arent hitting the ground like a pan chassis or skid plate it should last quite a while.

How do you do the multi color splatter ones I know how 2 tone and single color ones are done, but the splattering effect aludes me probably because Ive never even bothered to read up about it though .
