Post by Abrogate »

Does anyone now how to anodize titanium? I'd like to coat 25-50 custom pieces for a special project and would love to find a crafty partner in crime to work with...

You post made me wonder how you anodize titanium so I googled it and came across "MrTitanium's Introduction to Anodizing Titanium." The process turned out to be far more complicated than my simple mind can understand but step one caught my eye: Use rubber gloves to avoid electrocution.

edit: Some advice from step 3: For large pieces, make sure you have adequate ventilation to avoid an explosion hazard.
