[R-390] Anyone know where I cann get some alodining done?

[Dan Arney]

You can use RD DEvil lye to clean it and rinse in plain old water then 
dip immediately in the Alodine for several minutes then into another 
bath of regular water.
NONE OF THE PROCESSORS THAT I KNOW OR USE USE "DISTILLED WATER"
It is a waste of money.
I speak from experience and the several 100's of pieces that I process 
and sell all of the time.

BE CAREFUL WITH THE LYE, it  is cheaper than alumiprep and is caustic to 
about the same extent. Does as good or better.
