Seeking Training to Iridite/Alodine Aluminum

I would like information concerning is there a school that trains people to Iridite/ Alodine Aluminum. All I need is an Internet address.

Thanks,

Iridite is a trade name of Macdermid and Alodine is a trade name of Henkel, Lyn, so you may want to start by talking to those suppliers about any training they may offer.

Although I don't know of classes specifically about chromate conversion coating of aluminum, there are broader based classes on inorganic metal finishing by the AESF Foundation and by Kushner Electroplating School. Good luck.
