I would like to get a raw finished shock air can anodised black so need somewhere prepared to do small batches. Does anyone have any suggestions besides google ?
There's a place in Brum on Bissell St, B5 (Badger Anodising?) and they do small stuff for pretty much next day.
Paid a tenner for a set of cranks for reference.
Had quite a few bits done here:
Really good quality and fast turnaround.
Anyone know anywhere similar for powdercoating?
Most proper industrial estates have a metal finishers that do blast and powder, I've had frames done for £25.
I think Chameleon is Steve The Anodiser's other name? He did my frame, bloody lovely- and surprisingly good value too, cost about the same as quality powdercoating with prep, return post etc.
With powdercoating finish/quality is everything, you want a recommendation really. Places that do motorbikes are usually a good start- motorbikerists are demanding.
Thanks folks, I'll give em a try

I've always dealt with a lady when I've used them..
Contacted Chameleon and it is a Steve FWIW seems like a nice chap so going to give him my business. Let you know how it turns out.
They did these for me. Really good finish and a bit of a pain as I was after a Kashima colour:

Nice !
Got my air can back in a couple of days. Very pleased, so would highly recommend Steve.

I had a couple of rims blasted and powder coated here a couple of years ago, got good results:
Chris does a lot of motorbike bits. Massive ding down to the bed of one of my rims since last summer, and the coating cracked around it but none flaked off.
Another happy customer of Anodising Steve/Chameleon. He's done several bits for me over time and have always found him to be very helpful with a good turnaround time.
Some bits he's done for me.
