Cast Aluminum is very difficult to get an anodized look due to the silcone content in the casting. Here's a link you might want to check out:

Scroll down to topic number '6' and just do some reading, you will see what I am talking about. It's a really cool site and also gives a few more ideas other than anodizing, such as ceramic coating and powder coating.

hey m an you should get your stuff powdercoated. you can get almost any color and even transparent colors. if you have polished stuff and get them powdercoasted with a transparent color it looks sweet

I hate powdercoating with a passion. Dont ask why If it comes down to it Ill just polish the whole thing. Id really like to ano it though. I will check out that site as soon as i get some free time. In the mean time, anyone actually anoed theirs? OR at least attempted it?
