Can anyone point me in the direction of instructions to remove anodizing?

I've lost the 2 links that I did have

TIA

Bead blast the part.

I think muric acid mixed with water does the trick for removing anodizing. There are specific anodizing removers you can purchase.

Try here.

Thanks for all the info guys -

BlackVCG, haven't got a bead blaster yet - but it's in the budget :)

I'm pretty sure oven cleaner will do quite well too.

Oven cleaner will work - but it's not as predictable as others
