I'm looking for a good anodizer

Hello everyone. I recently got a few quotes from anodizers in my area to re-anodize my RC10T chassis black and they were super high. Can anyone point me in the direction of a good anodizer who doesn't charge so much? The highest quote I got was $115. Thanks.

I'll definitely put in my vote for Don. I'm not sure if he's taking on more anodizing projects, but he did the anodizing for my current Barney project; all the stock Optima parts were anodized grape purple & green by Don. I did all the initial deanodizing/sanding out scratches/wet-sanding/polishing before I shipped the parts to him. His attention to detail is excellent; he wants great results on your parts just as much as you do, and isn't happy if something doesn't turn out quite right. His price is a lot cheaper than what you were quoted, too.

Please do a search, there's a 2 page thread about anodizers.

I have had some parts done by Don also and he does an excellent job and has a quick turn around time also.
