you can also opt for the silver anodising route, or even a colour anodised frame. the pics are of my old HT stripped own and silver anodised. easy to clean and wears very well.

Looking good! Think this will be the best option!

Guess what, I went blue again, I bet no one would have guessed  :ph34r:

Sneak peak at the start of my build, will hopefully have it done by next weekend.

Was thinking of clear coat, just not sure it will be durable on raw aluminium. Else thinking of natural anodizing maybe

 

This is a bike that I built for my son. Rawed the frame and sprayed over the alli with a clear coat of Spectra Spray Rattle Can Clear.... The finish was great (You need to pick your day to spray very carefully...). Pretty durable and with some frame protection in the right places it's stood the test of time. Did my DH bike as well. Got a panel beater to spray it with clear but that has peeled. (I think they used a water based paint)

 

Think I'll strip my Teocali and do something special with the frame.... What to do oh what to do.....
