I agree that power paint would make more sense.
that is because blue and red are soft annodize. You can get black in hard annodize and will be much more durable. The only issue i have with annodize, is it will discolor around welds.

We sell lots of the PRC units and they work great, but when it came to needing a core support for project "N-XSS", I picked Autorad, Steve's pics say it all. Now you got me wondering Steve about our neck placement, guess I need to pull it out of the box and check it out.
