Black Iridite

We have been requested to process some internal underwater camera components, the specification calls for some areas to be anodised & dyed black and others to be BLACK Iridite. We are conversant with the Iridite process but cannot get any info on BLACK Iridite. Can anyone assist, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know years ago when I had a similar request for colored chromate coatings (besides standard yellow) I checked with Clariant & they do sell dyes for chromate, but it will not look as good as anodized areas.
