Annodizing question

[Stingy Mcdingy]

Can anyone refer me to a good site for getting a new Anno job on my Micromag? I'm trying to restore it to "like new" condition and it definitely needs a new Anno job. Its a matte black Micro so I'm not sure if this would need to be Annodized or Powder coated as I'm unsure how PTP originally did the finish.

Any suggestions?

PS: This would include the body, grip frame and barrel back to a "like new" flat black finish.

Typical film thicknesses can go all the way to .0035

Wow...I need to read up on this hard ano deal. Looks promising.

Looking for the Matte finish. I think that's more close to way they came stock.

The 2 mags in my last post just got pack from Chico. I sent in my drop from my T2 and had them color match it for the mags. They were already gloss so I had the lime green added instead of the gloss black. I have 2 barrel tips done in Lime green dust if you would like to see a pic of them also.

Looks really good. I like the wood grip machine gun look of the first one. A+ for original on that one

I called the guy at the Chico shop. Said I'd have to sent him some pics for a quote. Said usually $50 per piece depending on if it needs to be bead blasted or not. Seemed kind of expensive. Still on the fence about the restoration.

For the hard anno or just the standard anno. I got 15 pieces for 107.00, that was standard anno though.. Who did you talk to?

Spoke to the owner...his name escapes me at the time.

$50/piece is a little high from what I've been quoted. I've been shopping some quotes from different guys for 22 pieces and I've been quoted from ~$220-250 total.

That seems pretty fair considering that many pieces. I'm only really looking for the grip frame, body and barrel. I would think ~$100 would be a fair price to anno those. I'm almost considering trying to paint them myself with a flat black spray paint. That could end up a disaster though
