Color Anodizing

dye anodizing


Formation of a aluminum oxide coating provides aluminum with a natural decorative appearance and increased resistance to corrosion. Normally between .0001" to .001" thick, sulfuric anodizing lends itself readily to clear and color applications. Dyes can be deposited into the pores of the anodization and then sealed. The result is a highly intense, permanent color finish. Aluminum can be anodized and dyed to match a given color or to match a particular metal color or finish.


bright dip anodizing


Dip anodizing enhances the appearance of aluminum for cosmetic applications. Bright Dip anodizing results in a highly polished finish similar to the quality of plating. Bright Dip is a chemical process that brightens aluminum and does not leave deposits on the surface of the part. The degree of brightness is dependent on the alloy type as well as the surface finish of the part. After aluminum is Bright Dipped, it can be anodized clear or dyed to a variety of colors. Products acquiring this bright dipped anodized surface include decorative trims, light frames, shower doors, carpet molding, and reflectors.
