My friend and I have been playing around with coloring titanium, and we just wanted to share our latest project.
we started with an authentic Nismo titanium ****, we then proceeded to color sand it and do some polishing work on it, and then finally colored it via heat.
I think the results turned out pretty well![Wink](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
The top metal shift pattern emblem is ti as well and we decided to mirror polish it instead since it's so thin and VERY hard to get a good solid color out of that matches the rest of the ****.
I'm not going to get into all the details of the process involved or all the steps taken, but it's a pretty tedious job given that the insert is a delrin / nylon insert that is tricky to remove, and getting a consistent coloring can be tough etc...
you can see deep purples, Blues, and some bronze / gold![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
We're thinking of offering this service for your titanium ***** also (pm me with any particular questions or details as this isn't a for sale thread).
so now, on to the pics!
