Are there any trivalant colors available besides clear?

Are there any trivalant chromate colors readily available besides clear? I have heard rumors of a very pale yellow possibly becoming available, but nothing about any O.D. green or black.

I have seen a yellow trivalent passivate advertised. I know that some companies are in the process of developing a black trivalent passivate. These are rare though, most all brands of trivalent chromates will be clear.
