What is an effective way to protect the alodine film? I know I could
shoot Zinc Chromate primer (~$8 a can), or use one of the epoxy two
part systems, but I have many small parts (2024-3) and I won't have
them all ready at the same time.

This probably won't be of much help to you, but I am in a similar
situation on my Bearhawk project with what seems like a million aluminum
parts, and since I want to operate as a seaplane I am going the full
alodine/prime route so that it doesn't crumble away on me before I am
done flying it. The best solution I have been able to come up with is
to hold off on assembling anything until all of the aluminum parts are
done, and then alodine/prime everything in one big hazmat fest. This
creates other problems, but logistically I think it is the lesser of all
evils. I plan to do this sometime over the summer so you may get to
read here how it all went.
