Does Jason Wong do custom anodizing anymore? I would like to see what he can do with 7075. I also have a raw Attune that would be a candidate for some treatment.
It’s probably clear ano then. A mirror polish is exactly what it sounds like. Here’s a pic of an old Sleipnir I had yoyospirit do. Man I wish I still had this thing.
that does look really nice but I also really like the look of obsidian markmonts, how do you get them to have a mirror polish but have a black tint to it?
You can have your own opinions, but don’t pressure your views on others. And btw, don’t have a heart attack, but I already powder coated an E=MC^2 for someone Anyway, I haven’t really heard of an anodize that looks like an obsidian Markmont Next, ask England about that, he’ll know much more than me. The process for that color was the Markmont Next was first nickel plated, then went through another process that caused it to quickly tarnish, turning it black. There is, however, a powder coat that I find to be pretty close, called Solar Rain or Black Chrome or something, ask mullicabob about this, I never found it attractive so I never bought the powder. And black anodize over a polish would just look like a shiny black.
If you want a really cool dark color, get it nickle plated and let it sit in diet coke for 32 hours. Markmont did that to some of his nickle throws and it gave them a rich obsidian look.
