Removing my black anodised aluminium finish?

[Pocket10s]

Hi all!

I managed to snag an amazing B-Grade deal on my Raijintek Thetis case from OcUK. However, it's anodised black and I really wanted a silver or white case.

Is there an easy way to remove an anodised finish from aluminium? Google brings up some options with oven cleaner that looks nasty and also, will mean the aluminium will oxidise?

Are there any places in the UK i can send the panels to that can paint them? How much would it cost?

Thanks

Thanks for the replies! I may as well just keep it black then - seems too much effort.

Surely it would have been far cheaper and less hassle to of just bought the silver case in the first place as there only £86

As having something painted normally costs a fortune

I got it for £44 which I thought was a bargain - I did not mind the black, just really wanted a white or silver case but thought I should not pass it up!
