Powder coated all of my window frames. It is very durable and very chemical resistant. Only issue I had was installing the wipe felts on the vertical division bar. The powder coating made the T channel smaller and sliding those wipe felts in was rough on one or two of them. If they ever get damaged I can touch them up with trim paint as I picked satin black for the powder color. The windows look new with fresh powder and rubbers.

Hello,
Thanks guys some ideas to be getting on with. I did the fingernail test and it scrapes off right down to the metal surface. Hellfire, hours of work wasted. An option is powder coating, has anyone done this, and were there any problems????.
Still not sure on the best route to follow here. I guess one would need to be careful where the frame fits togeather, as assembly of the frame could chip the powder coating off ???
Are there any other processes that would work on alum for a good finish???.
cheers and beers
