Since you're wanting to make it black to match other accouterments on
your vehicle, consider that most, if not all, black-dyed anodization will fade in the sunlight, and it doesn't take all that long. In addition, depending on the aluminum alloy, the "black" may not be all that black to begin with. Why not instead give the antenna a coat of automotive enamel or lacquer? You can either mask off areas that need to have electrical contact, or scrape them after painting. Perhaps you can paint after the antenna is assembled. That way, you can get a color that really matches other items. Cheers, Tom |
