Questions about Black Oxiding

Re: Questions about Black Oxiding

It will scratch/wear-off of the places where there is "rubbing". It will usually stand-up to things like wrenches or sockets, especially if you have a good fit, no slipping. It is a surface coating after all.

Re: Questions about Black Oxiding

That kind of what I figured. What are the options for these areas??

Chrome, powder coating?
