Hey everybody, been lurking on this forum for a few days now and really throwing around the idea to set up a little anodizing line in my shop. I’ve been in the powder coating business for about a year and the metal polishing and motorcycle repair business for about 5 years now and have been getting a few inquires about anodizing. My business is just a part time thing for now and "renting" about 1/4 of my dads auto electric shop where I also do the 9-5 thing (so basically I never leave, lol) Space is somewhat limited as I don’t want to push Pops out the door…yet. I think I may have found a power supply that will be more then enough for now but allow me to expand if needed POWER SUPPLY
I know from China, but I’ve had quite a bit of luck buying electronic things from there
Next question, what size tubs/tanks would be good to start with? I imagine I would be doing smaller motorcycle/bicycle parts probably some paintball and RC car parts, kinda looking for a gallon or liter size to go with.
Also, what do you guys do with the batches of dye that are mixed up? Put it in tubs? I can’t imagine having 5-6 large tubs full of dye laying around, that would take up alot of real estate.

Thanks for any insight.
Paul
