ok i have the tank set up.. there is fizz.. i left the parts in for 25-30 mins. Take it out put in COLD water.. then Dye... take it out of die and still silver?


(i dont know why its not working this time)

I am not sure.......but I think you are supposed to dye it then put it in cold water???

also are you sure you are using the correct aluminum? there are only about 3 kinds that can be ano'd

[BajaBoy]

yea, when i got them.. they where splash ano, and black ptp ano

[bryan]

hes right...what youre doin is sealing the aluminum and then trying to dye it. if you leave it in the dye for a long time then it may take a little color...but not much. Dye it first and then seal it in cold water...youre results will be better

im pretty sure magman007 knows alot about this cause he annoed his gun himself, so if ya need help, id suggest shootin him a pm.

thanx evryone for input..


bryan- cold water is to get the acid off, hot water seals it.

i talked to mag man.. and he told me to leave it in the dye for an hour


(still looking for info on why this isnt working)
