Colouring tiny articles of titanium

September 9, 2009

I will be highly thankful , if any one can guide me about the procedure for colouring titanium also about the different colours and a small set up. I am ready to buy if any one can give me lead to such manufacturer of this type of equipment and supplier of chemicals and colours used in this process.
This is because I have to start a set up at very small scale in future depending all the correct and workable information is gathered.

Hi, Abdul. Titanium can be anodized in a variety of colors. There may be practical difficulties in applying this well-known anodizing process to very tiny articles though. Search this site for "anodize titanium" and you'll find a lot of info. Good luck.
