-----Al6061 finishing color
My Seat Ring part is used on the fishing rod, so the properties of the materials must have high resistant of corrosion. Then I choose the method as below: Seat Ring part made by the Al6061, surface finishing is Alumite. So the part after finishing can get the same color for big volume production? If the color will have the variation, so what is the color recommended to get the color similar to silver color.

In Type II Anodizing, "clearer" coatings (closest to the natural silver color of aluminum) are favored by lower current density, and higher temperature.
