Aluminium Anodising kit
Ideal for DIY enthusiasts and car or motorcycle restorers. You can anodise most types of aluminium.
The principle behind anodising is the formation of an oxide layer on the surface of the aluminium by using a 12v DC power supply and in a solution called an electrolyte. Once the item has been anodised and fixed, the surface becomes very hard and so gives good corrosion protection. The process allows the surface of the aluminium to be dyed and many different colours and shades can be achieved. The process takes about an hour to anodise, up to 15 minutes to dye depending on the shade and depth of colour required and 30 minutes to fix the dye and seal the surface. No exotic chemicals are needed to complete the process.
The size and shape of the objects to be anodised are limited to the size and shape of the tank in which you are anodising. For long items you could use a wallpaper soaking tank and for larger diameter items use a plastic storage box.
This complete kit comes with an anodising guide. The guide takes you through the various stages of anodising, from setting up the anodising tank and the chemicals used, to cleaning, de-greasing, etching and de-smutting and to the anodising process itself through to rinsing, dying, fixing and polishing.
There is also no need for an expensive power supply as I will show you how to use a 12v car battery or battery charger.
