Is there anyone out there that has any experience in gunkoting a Titanium Frame?
-Is it possible?
-Would preparation be any different?
-Any possible problems or difficulties?

Thanks in Advance.

Gromit, these type finishes are supposed to adhere to any metal surface so I wouldn't expect a problem. George

Thanks George

My brother wants a Taurus Titanium for concealed carry but he doesn't like the silvery shiny finish.

The Titanium firearms components I've seen (revolver cylinders) are a dark gray color, and are a brushed finish...

even though it is brushed finished, its not very dark in color- in any event, he'd be much happier with a matte black finish.
