... why don't you have a thermal temperature detector, you know one that you point, pull trigger, and it displays the temp? For a newbie it would be helpful to know what temp the metal is and then what effects they can produce with the metal at that temp. Really a neat idea, and one I would employ if I did the type of fishy work you do Larry!
@carolchase7914 жыл бұрын
so does that mean you can re-heat and re-cool and it will do the color changing again. In a large piece can you heat small areas at a time and then later do another section?

How do you keep the color over time? Natural oxidation will kill it, and every thing I've used to try to coat and save the color just dulls it down.
