HPI's signature color is purple. AE's is blue, Tamiya's is lighter blue and Losi's is yellow (for their wheels)

Purple reminds me off the lifted trucks you see in the late 80s and early 90s with purple shocks,pin stripes ect. everywhere. Im just not a big fan of it.

You can use ezoff oven cleaner, but it is really dangerous and will eat the aluminum if left for too long. A better solution would be a cleaner called Greased Lightning. It will take off the anno and still leave the aluminum in tact. I think RC driver did an article about making flames on a purple annodized chassis using liquid mask and greased lightning. It was really cool!
