As title - quite fancy giving the ML8 a new lease of life and although the hard ano finish is very hard wearing, I fancy a change!

I'm sure it can be acid dipped by a good anodizers / powder coaters.

Not sure about powder coating but would be ok sprayed as long as the frame is thoroughly cleaned, de-greased and etch primed first.

if you etch primer it you will surely ruin the anodizing so it depends if you ever want to go back. And it will get heavier!

My Spesh P2 was hard anodized. Powdercoated with no problems, still good 4 years later.
