Let me see if I understand you..you have bid on an anodizing job, the order was placed..and you don't have an anodizing tank/line set up..and no dye suppliers. I'm not going to go into the process of setting up an anodizing line..but there are several dye suppliers.. Clariant, US Specialty Color Corp, and Eagle-Lite are just a few. They are all US companies.
Good Luck (sounds like you're gonna need it).
