    Thanks Mick, are there any other high tec finishes that can be applied to anodised alloy to bling it up a bit? I'm looking for a nice electric blue.

    I couldn't say Rob, but hopefully LSD could give you the answers.




    All the best Mick

    Sorry, after the thread over in nag, I just roared with laughter when I read this!...


    Edit: are there any engineering or plating firms near you that could do anodising?...might be worth a google to see as there may be someone on a industrial estate near you that could help you out.
    blah blah

    Oh yes, LSD, hilarious!

    I don't trust small Welsh business having used them over the years. Most have no care about the work they do, it's all about getting the money and over selling their skills.

    I'll have a chat with LSD

    Maybe I could ask that Grom rider, he gets about !!!

    I'm used to it now, that's why I changed my name from Sunbeam to Mr Chip Shoulder!
    People can now take pop's at me with a degree of legitimacy because of my name.
    My name is a type of shield.

    I'm not pissed off with you, I just take a view and move on
