Anodizing?

[Kole_DeWoody]

Has anyone ever anodized the frame or wheels?
Kinda want to do something different.

Bad thing about anodizing is it will eventually fade in the sun and is not a durable as powder coating.
I would email grandstanddesign.com for a quote.

Thats true but powder coating is usually glossy and does not really have that like um cool feel to it..

anodizing will scratch easily as well, but looks good. would be worth looking into.

would look great for a wheel, but u will hate the water spots after a while,,,

You could give Hard Anodizing a try.

Hard Anodizing - Anodizing that requires a high current density and low-temperature electrolytes. Hard anodizing results in coatings that are resistant to corrosion, abrasion, and erosion.

It's supposed to be more resistant than some painted finishes and is probably the type of anodizing they use on the translucent wheels. You can probably protect the finish even more by applying a clearcoat on top of the anodizing.
