What finishes are available for 3al/2.5v titanium to increase surface hardness

I know about TiN, but what about hard anodize and regular anodize. What type of Rockwell do we see?

Hard chrome plating may work. Electroless nickel is hard, but is thin. You may need to look at plasma or HVOF thermal sprays.
