Preparation is the big thing and after polishing to remove the imperfections the many stages before the actual anodizing all take time.
If you're doing it yourself it can be reltively cheap but you'll be limited by what you can get from the mains supply you're using.
I have some 2k aluminium silver metallic polyurethane paint which might be okay as well. I might do a trial and see what it looks like as I have never used it.
