Oldsoul, I have done some, underline
"some" flame coloring like the #2 pic ,on smaller pieces.
But to be honest i only saw a little browning develope in certain areas, if i went to long with the flame the metal turn dark blue almost black, which required regrinding and flaming all over.that was colled rolled .
We have a couple old electric kitchen ovens here in the class for powder coating,which isn't working very well by the way( non-convection type) uneven finishes we believe do to heat.
But what temp have you used in an oven ? and how long?
We dont have glass doors so we have to open the ovens to see work turn
colors, which then cools oven..etc...
Oldsoul ...thanks for your input every little insite does help..
We are trying to implement this type of refinishin,or finishing in our metals ,and fabrication classes as a way to make projects more personal.
Inifinty:
We use both hot rolled and some colled rolled . we get our cold rolled from a local machine builder Continental Machine,the gives us scraps ,but most are under 12" wide,too expsensive to purchase for school projects. The wolves are hot rolled that I have done here.
J&S:
to be honest i don't remember...lol I purchsed files from Jason and others to donate to the school here ,some from this forum for us to share which has been great. I will look and see if I can find the where if possible i will share with you or let you know were i bought it.
