Hey guys, I'm back form few weeks of very hard work. This is a new episode of the diary!

Hello Tifun! Is it there any updates?
Yes, I was curious to understand the effects of anodyzing process on a carb body, and my first thought was right; it's not a good idea. Few months ago I went to a company and they told me that their process to obtain the black oxide takes 4μm in aluminium...
Nice job, even for the carbs! I cleaned mine two weeks ago and I know what a real pita is that operation... They look very nice dressed in black! ;) Are them painted or anodized?
