Consensus on home plating.

Sesman:
Who supplies the barrel?

We could operate like a brand tub and you go in blind fold. You keep what you draw. Bit like buying of some unscrupulous eBay sellers. :)

Seriously though. Can anybody recommend an anodising company as I’m refurbing my tank badges.

Oddjob:
According to anodisers, and I've talked to quite a few, only certain types of alloy can be anodised. I'm pretty certain tank badges are made of what Bryan calls pot metal, and thus can't be anodised.

I've got an experiment running next week where I'm testing 2 parts of my 500 in a special process, it's to see if they will stand up to it or disintegrate, if they do then no loss as they are spares, if they don't, oh my, watch this space, although it depends on cost I suppose.

Gateros do an anodising kit Phil, maybe worth a punt
