At this stage of the process the film has microscopic pores (see picture left) which have to be sealed (or 'fixed') by dipping the part into sealer for 15 minutes. The part may be colored prior to boiling by simply soaking in our range of professional anodizing dyes. An almost infinite range of colors can be produced by mixing the dyes together.

Each kit is supplied with a color wheel. Dyes can be mixed together to create a host of different colors. The dyes are in concentrated liquid form, a 4oz bottle makes up 2 gals of ready to use dye. To make up different colors, we suggest that you make up the colors to the correct dilution first, then take a quantity of each dye and blend them together. A color chart can be seen here.

Anodized aluminum has a very durable surface that is unaffected by weather and many chemicals. The surface will resist high temperatures, even a blowtorch, for short periods.

The issue of safety whilst anodizing is addressed by the use of plastic fume balls and a chemical mist suppressant, both of which float on the surface of the anodizing tank. During operation, no dangerous fumes are evident. Anodize Fume Suppressant may also be used on any sulfuric acid electro-stripping or etching tanks.

Don't rely on mist suppressants entirely, they ALL break down eventually. Fume balls are permanent and they help control heat loss & evaporation, maintaining a more even tank temperature. Don't settle for kits that don't come with fume balls.

Anodizing Sealant. This is the product the commercial anodizers use. Add only 1 oz per gal of distilled water, and heat to boil for 15-20 mins. 1lb pack makes 16 gals solution.

Anodizing Sealant LT. Here is a great new product which eliminates the need for boiling to seal the anodize. This remarkable material seals in only 5-10 minutes. Simply add 2 fl oz per gallon of distilled lukewarm water. Works by penetrating the pores of the anodized surface and through a precipitation mechanism, plugs the pores to provide an anodic film with improved corrosion resistance. Not recommended when dying.

Aluminum De-Oxidizer & De-Smut. This is the product the commercial anodizers use, a liquid concentrate, added to distilled water, to make a pre-anodize dip which de-smuts, removes unwanted materials such as copper, silicone & magnesium and prepares the metal for immediate anodizing. This is useful on alloys prone to smutting when placed into the anodizing tank. (Usually found on many Japanese motorcycle parts.) Aluminum De-Oxidizer & De-Smut is a chrome-free liquid de-oxidizer for a wide range of alloys. It operates at room temperature and is also an excellent de-oxidizer for aluminum alloys prior to chromating.

Anodize & Chrome Stripper is a super fast commercial grade stripper. It outperforms all others in speed and quality. Does not attack the aluminum. 1 lb makes 3 gallons.

A reliable source of high quality battery acid can be obtained from NAPA AUTO STORES. See NAPA Online for a store near you.

Battery acid makes up ALL types of anodizing baths (just add distilled water). No need to carry different solutions for different anodizing tasks.

Buying quality battery acid locally saves shipping hazardous materials and HAZMAT charges. It costs next to nothing, so much larger setups can be produced at minimum cost, and if you contaminate the tank, it is inexpensive to replace, unlike pre-made solutions.
