: : Is it best practice to chemical conversion coat (MIL-C-5541D) aluminum(6061-T6) before hard anodizing (MIL-A-8625F)?
: Just before anodizing? No.
: If it is to be anodized, the surface must be free of any coating. That means if it has chem film, this has to be stripped first before being hard anodized.
