Anodizing different colors





I realize you can anodize aluminum several colors. Can the same piece of aluminum have multiple colors anodize on them in order to create a known pattern? (i.e. black with red lines).

Yes.

Anodizing can be done in any color but white or off white. You can do multiple colors on a single piece. This can be done randomly, or in a fixed pattern like you mention. My company does single & multiple color anodizing.

Does anyone have an example of patterned anodizing that I could look at. Does this process work for going around bends and on cylindrical components?
