Hello,
I don't have an anodizing kit yet, but I will certainly buy one if I can use it to anodize an AR15 lower receiver (7075-T6 aluminum alloy).
I have been looking, but I have not been able to find out the details of how an AR15 lower receiver is anodized.
I believe it is done according to MIL-A-8625; supposedly Type III class 2, with a thickness of 0.002 (includes both penetration and build-up).
But what are the details?
What kind of pretreatment, what kind of dye is used, how is it sealed, etc.?
I would greatly appreciate if anyone could provide this information? Thank you.
Regards,
AR15
