Need a good text or review paper on anodizing of aluminum

I would like to anodize a few aluminum computer housings/chassis that I already built or I can start with sheet and rebuild. Is this something that I can do in my garage/shop? I do have access to rectifiers, etc. I just need conditions and electrolyte components. Recommendations for review articles or text books in this area will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ed. note: One of our regular readers and supporting advertisers, Robert Probert, has just come out with a very moderately priced book "Aluminum How-To".

Consult TALAT website-there you can find very good download free articles on that subject!

Good luck! (www.eaa.net/education/TALAT/index.htm)
