@@jackoryan9220 what...
Same
What does that even mean?
Thanks dude. Can't wait to ruin my pocket knife tonight.

Thanks for helping Daniel Krafft
Hard material to polish indeed. Just spent 30 hours hand sanding/polishing a titanium bike to mirror (almost) finish. Will not ever do that again unless being held at a gunpoint. lol.
Hey man.. I'm doing the same than you with a colnago titanium frame. Could you please let me know how you did it ? I spent a few hours sanding but im far to a mirror... Don't know exactly what kind of sands to use... Thanks
This is why I am here thinking about what I can do with a titanium bike frame. Was thinking satin would also look cool (if possible with titanium)
With some wax and a speed controller, you can use an angle grinder with a PSA backer with 220, 400, 800, and then a finishing wheel and you can get a perfect mirror finish.
I was researching turbine blade cleaning and noticed they stop at 600 grit. I think because after that the aerodynamic gains are not worth the time spent.
Nice
I'm getting ready to refinish a titanium watch I bought in pretty sad shape. Looking for some inspiration and "this was by far the hardest metal I've worked with. I don't want to do it again" yay 😂
Sorry to ruin your inspiration. A small watch wouldn't be too bad. I'm never doing a titanium sheet again though
@@SkillsandTrade haha no you didnt dont worry. I was messing around. Finished the watch, it was challenging however got it done and looking like new again.
@@zaxsp1118 I want to polish some titanium earrings, can you please share the process you followed for your watch? Some tips? Thank you so much 💖
@@SweetyPrincessMarghe for sure. I'll ask you to bare with me, I work for ups and work a ton of hours. So I'll reply later tonight with a step by step. It was a really rewarding process and came out nicely. Let me ask first what kind of polish are you going for? Mirror finish, brushed, bead blasted. And if you're not familiar with these terms. Mirror is like you're looking at a mirror where it's really reflective and shiny (hardest one) brushed is like a nice soft waterfall effect (this covers and dents and scuffs nicely) and bead blasted is commonly what titanium ships out like a really flat and dull finish.
@@zaxsp1118 First, thank you so much for your reply! I was thinking about a medium shine, the wire I'm using for jewelry making is not completely opaque and dull, but I wanted to make it a little bit more shiny. With your criteria, probably a little more than a brushed. No problem with timing, write when you can, I am not in a rush. Thank you again 💖
This mirror will never break
I loved the part where he "begin sanding" !
Hey how long did it take you to polish this out from start to finish?
How long did it last?
What if I skip the sanding and use a metal power polisher?
A hard material, and No pain No gain. LOL
Please do satellite dish antenna to mirror finish once
Sounds like an interesting video idea. Thank you
How do I sand a cylindrical titanium workpiece?
🖖 👍
How to remove scratches from it?
curios how hoch this sheet costs
I'm polishing a titanium strut bar, is it possible to achieve the same results by hand?
It should be, it will just be a lot of work
That alumi-cut, can I substitute using WD40?
That would probably work fine
Is this 6AL4V Ti?
Mear or mirror
Does it rust or oxidize?
Jerome Lawson, Titanium is inert, that's why it's used in replacement joints in the medical industry. It's also strong, tough and light when compared to Steel. The reason why it's so hard to polish is exactly that.... it's hard! So NO it doesn't rust or oxidize but it will anodise well when subjected to heat or electrical currents.
Actually a layer of strongly adherent TiO2 does form on the surface.
@@joseywales3789 Titanium is not inert at all, in fact it oxidizes extremely easily just like aluminum, and like aluminum (and unlike steel or iron) the oxide that forms (TiO2) is very hard and protective, but it's clear so you can't see it, unless you intentionally anodize it even further to create a thick enough oxide layer to create the thin film light interference which gives you the brilliant colors. If titanium were inert, then anodizing would be impossible
Can I use wd-40 instead of alumi-cut?
