QUOTE Any anodizing will be less than mega-shiny. I disagree. I know that anodizing reduces shiny by its nature, but bright anodizing is called such for a reason. Most people wouldn't be able to tell a difference between correct anodizing and chrome without the pieces being right next to each other. |

Huh, is bright anodizing actually anodizing, or is it some other process? Does it have the same benefits of conventional anodizing? |
