Hard anodize is an extremely tough coating that will make the aluminum impervious to corrosion, and I believe it can be done in a variety of decorative colors. If I'm wrong about the color thing, it certainly can be painted and stripped and repainted if necessary, without affecting the anodize. Incidentally, FWIW, Hard anodize is also a very good electrical insulator while interfering little with the good thermal conductivity of the base aluminum. Dan Schaefer
