A morning spent anodizing titanium and aluminum Media

Published: 12 years ago

I filmed this a few weeks ago while I was doing a whole bunch of anodizing one morning. I finally got Multi-Etch to work for etching and stripping titanium, the trick is to heat it up to at least 140°F if not 180°F, then it works fast. After that I anodized some titanium handles all different colors and showed the results. While that was happening, I was anodizing a small run of aluminum handles which takes about 4-5 hours. This video is a rundown of both processes with lots of cool visual stuff to look at, if you're into this kind of geek stuff. I finished both batches of parts by 11am which is an absolute record for me!
