Haley:
I've got a silver MX1000 caliper and tech 3 lever. Can they be anodised blue or do they need stripping or anything first?

sawzall:
i dont think they can be done as they have steel parts on them ??? and this affects the process...........your only other option is to paint them with glass paint then clear coat :daumenhoch:

Haley:
OH POO!!! Just scored this on ebay too. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Cheers for the glass paint tip.  :daumenhoch:

Drop a line to customparts they will have the answer. Theoretically it should be possible as all you do is pre charge them in a sulpuric acid bath with a current running through them and then you dye them with an organic dye and finally boil them to seal in the colour.(thats how its done by the amature)
