Re: why flat finish
You are probably seeing the effects of dissolution. Do a search on that word, there has been a lot of information and discussion posted on the subject that will be educational and help you to understand it, and hopefully learn what went wrong.
You can not polish anodized parts and dye them with success, once dissolution occurs the only remedy is to strip the part and try again. Of course, if you don't correct what went wrong in the first place, the problem will likely repeat.
