Abstract:
Methods for coloring metals, particularly refractory metals, via anodization is provided that utilizes UV-curable ink, which allows for color layer patterns with much higher spatial resolution that one can achieve with photoresist-based masks. The methods of the present invention can be used to create very detailed, high resolution multicolored line art images on refractory metals.

Claim (Index 20):
The method of  claim 9 , wherein the substrate is anodized by:\n connecting a tool to the anode of a DC voltage generator; at least partially immersing the substrate in an electrolytic solution; electrically connecting the cathode of the DC voltage generator to the electrolytic solution; dipping the tool in electrolytic solution; and placing the tool in sufficient proximity to the areas of the substrate not covered by the UV-cure ink layer while a voltage is applied by the voltage generator so as to create the desired color layer.
