I took a pen eraser the the Ti finish as I found it a bit too subdued. The end result is a sheen that reflects much more light although it may not show as much in pictures the difference is huge. Kinda like Stainless Steel in a hot shower... subtle sheen.   BEFORE & AFTER  Last edited on Mon Apr 13th, 2009 04:17 pm by |

Most commercial titanium alloys will form a thick oxide layer compared to stainless steel, so unless you want to keep at this it will eventually return to something closer to the former luster. It is a nice look though even with the little rubber bits

I was going to go all out with the polishing paste but chose this quick eraser method as I knew eventually it would oxidize again. Took about 5 min.
