    Priscilla, By using a variable DC voltage power supply you can get
    any color you want. If you want to mask certain areas and are using
    lower voltage values <35Volts you can use nail polish.  You can also
    create a paint brush anodizer by connecting one lead to the ferrule
    of an artist brush.  Then you can paint certain portions whatever
    color you want.  I find I need to increase the voltage by 5 volts on
    my paint brush to get the same color as the tank anodizing.  This is
    due to the resistance increase through the brush ferrule.
