i know oven pride removes annodising (done it a few times)
but what about hard annodising, have heard that oven pride wont touch it, if so what will?

Not really sure what "Hard Anodising" is, but it is probably a misnomer. ::)
If an alloy is "Anodised" the process can always be reveresed using a strong alkali (eg Oven Pride); this is fundamental chemistry. :angel:
I suspect that for "Hard Anodising" the anodised surface is over varnished with a lacquer of some sort to protect it; in this case you will first need to remove the lacquer, before resorting to Sodium Hydroxide / Caustic / Oven Pride to remove the anodised surface. :daumenhoch:

just double checked and its "ultra hard annodising" :LolLolLolLol:
will do a test area with oven pride later :daumenhoch:

Stop pussying about with oven pride and get yourself some caustic soda.

If it's a headset that you are trying to do ~ like a tange 300 or so then oven pride is fecking usless ::)
haven't found any thing that will shift it, apart from polishing it out :tickedoff:

caustic is the only way to remove hard anno kev,it takes ages but it will shift it,just keep checking
and use a scotch brite pad to rub item being stripped and dont forget some industrial rubber gloves and goggles :daumenhoch:

hard anno is just more anno if that makes sense. it's just a bigger layer.
