"Complete and comprehensive detail" is provided by books, not forum postings, John :-)

But we need to start with the potential application as there are at least two very different types of titanium anodizing: a heavy alkaline type for wear and galling resistance per AMS 2488, and a thin decorative type created in acid used to impart colorful effects on titanium jewelry. Whice are you trying to do, and on what kind of parts? Good luck.

Hi,

I think your missing the point with you expectation from the net. No matter how well you search and how good a site is, it will never be a bookstore or the downtown library. Get yourself books and study them.
