Depends how deep the Anodising was done, a few thou usually. Anodising is a process that changes the chemical structure of the outer layer of the metal. Anodising actually reduces the thickness of the metal it does not add to it.
So the
the thickness of
the orings and the the pressure exerted on them will have no deeming or adverse affect on the valve block what so ever
As we are talking microscopic terms
Who said anything about using detergant and the alloy is anodised? I got the dishwasher trick from Rangerovers.net, it works a treatReally
Aluminum is generally not considered dishwasher safe. It reacts with the alkalinity of home dishwasher detergent (these are alkaline to remove fat/oil.) There's a thin native oxide on bare aluminum, but it's not thick enough to be a protective layer.
Many things can cause a dishwasher to perform poorly, but the cause is likely a widespread recent change in the formulation of dishwasher detergents. If your detergent was manufactured before July 1, 2010, it may have contained more than 0.5% phosphate (so-called "high-phosphate"). If manufactured after that date, the detergent probably contains no more than 0.5% phosphate (so-called "low-phosphate"). Unfortunately, high-phosphate detergents are the only formulation that reliably produces "shiny clean" dishes when used with hard water (8-grain or higher). 8-grain hardness requires a detergent that contains at least 5% phosphate -- ten times the concentration of the low-phosphate formulation -- to work well.
Try the steam cleaner next time
If your that worried
So you don't need my blasting cabinet then.

To change the subject ha ha . Ultra sound cleaned the block and rebuilt it with new O rings. Very good service from the O ring supplier that wammers recommends in his "how to". Just waiting for the new dryer to arrive. So back to the argument.
Thought you had wiped the seats clean
bit of a change there, can't argue with the ultra sonic method,but the industrial size ones can be a tad pricey unlike these small jewellery shop ones. 4k plus it a bit pricey to do a block Thought you had wiped the seats clean

They are only any good if the particles are loosely

He was able to wipe them off they are made for soiled items
Not hardened embedment
That's why you need the solvents
