As per the title, I'm wondering if anyone knows of a paint that would look close to annodising? I'm only looking to do a hinged seat-clamp from it's current polished state to blue to match my other bike, so I wasn't thinking of spending time and money having it re-annodised?

Did you get a set of black Ami Tri's by the way? I replied and said I had a set you could have had if you came and fetched them when you were in Sheffield next fella :daumenhoch:

Check out a spray paint called I think METALCAST. I think it's by Dupli-colour. Their is a video from the company showing what it looks like, and it look rad. :shocked:
The only problem is that it is only available from the USA. Hope this helps. :daumenhoch:

Ive got a TA rider with Blue Shimano DX's on. I just touched them in with the blue glass paint and a small brush and they have come up a treat. Glass paint for DX's. Not sure if its an anno look though. :-\
