Just heard back from the place near me, they reckon around a tenner for a stem or brake calipers. Will get some pics up when they finish the clamp  :daumenhoch:

Clint, it shocked me the first time I had something anno'd.  I was thinking this cannot be right, it is too cheap.

Would be good to see what other results you get with your contact, I love seeing stuff that members rescue.

Do you have to polish it first?
I've been thinking about getting stem re-annoyed a different colour as the original has started to fade. Only issue is that it is etched with writing. I was hoping to just give it a CS bath, quick rub over and get it annoyed.

snoopy72:
The best finish for anno is machined finish, if the old anno is removed it leaves the surface a matt finish so you will have an ano in a matt colour, if you remove the ano and polish it and it has any scratches to the surface this will be highlighted with the end result, it copies the surface but just colours it, any alluminium i take for anno i spray the parts with carburettor /induction  cleaner and a tooth brush especially if you polish it because it will draw the black out of the alloy making it patchy just like what comes out on a rag after polishing it.
so if you polish it make sure it is clean  , the spray will clean the pours of the alloy and it evaporates  :daumenhoch:
