I already wrote something about it in the post #5

Alusil is a material (the whole block is made of alusil), nikasil is a coating - in case of alusil you'll just need to use special bursting (not exactly a hone) to disclose the silicon crystals in aluminium matrix, but it's an easy routine process being performed daily.
