Exclamation List of Anodizers

Before anyone replies...yes I'm aware there is a sticky.

I'm also aware that much of that list no longer exists. Anyone have a more recent, more thorough list of paintball anodizers?

Preferably ones that don't charge outrageous prices.

Knowing where you live could be helpful for finding one near you.

The way to offset huge ano charges is to have many parts done at the same time. Often, an anodizer must pour the same size bath whether he is doing 1 part, or 12 parts. The more you have done, the cheaper it is per-part.

I've found that more than 10 parts just gets much more expensive. I've got 11 and that doesn't include barrels. Cheapest I've found so far is $110 for gloss black. If I wanted a different color it would run $135 from the same company.

I'm in the Washington, DC area.

You could try getting in touch with the TonSixer guys. Their stuff looks cool.

EDIT: I pulled this off of their facebook page.

Nicholas Ton Here are all the prices for the anodizing. If there are any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact my brothers or myself.


$30 body in dust; $40 in gloss (Top and bottom tube together)
$20 barrel in dust; $30 in gloss (One or two piece)
$20 trigger frame in dust; $30 in gloss
$10 per piece after that in dust; $15 in gloss

Add an extra $10 per piece for 2-colour splash and an extra $5 per piece per later of colour. (In sponge or splash in any order you want)

OR

If you have a full marker (11 pieces+) the price for splash is reduced to a flat rate of $60 for the entire marker + $20 per extra layer of colour along with a discount of %15 off the total price.

Yup, here`s one of our most recent jobs.



A 3-colour splash like this would only run you an extra $80 ontop of the standard pricing.

Here`s a 4-colour fade just for kicks.

I've hit a snag, I found the front grub screw of the project angel I just bought has a metal piece jammed in it. I can not get it out, it's obviously been in there for a LONG time and it is way down inside of it. I may have to send it to FMA first and have it drilled out by them.
