Anodising

My pal who is an ex Yamaha factory engineer, started his own small one man band business in Cheshire and is responsible for some some of the best finishing I've seen. Check out his Facebook site under MHF Restoration. Look at the quality of this:

I don't think he does the original Yamaha olive green. But then again - I've never asked him. I can highly recommend him. He even get people sending him parts from Japan and Italy to restore back to original. He does vapour blasting, powder coating and zinc coating.
