• Description: Anodizing of aluminum products can be presented in a wide range of colors—all requiring proper process and control parameters in order to achieve the correct color quality and durability. The responsibility for achieving this lies not only with the anodizer, but with the aluminum manufacturer and the customer. If the anodizer does not have the right specifications and product information, it is difficult for them to achieve the desired colored surface finish. This article provides an overview of the coloring and sealing process and explains what specifications and parameters that the customer will need to discuss with their anodizer in order to avoid colorcatastrophes.
