I was wondering about how to refinish such an item.
1. Do the anodized layers that firearm manufacturers use on their aluminum frames compare to an anodized finish I would get from using one of your anodization kits, or are they "hard anodized"
2. Can you matte electroless nickel using zincate on top of an anodized layer of such a part and retain strength? If so, how thick would this new zincate/nickel layer be?
3. How well would a person prepare an anodized surface for application of Teflon? I was thinking using a light pressure blast, just enough to scuff up the surface
Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!
