Treatment of titanium and titanium alloys.

  Attack on titanium surfaces is generally difficult to detect.  Titanium is by nature, highly corrosion resistant, but it may show deterioration from the presence of salt deposits and metal impurities, particularly at high temperatures.  Therefore, the use steel wool, iron scrapers, or steel brushes for cleaning or for the removal of corrosion from titanium  parts is prohibited.  If titanium surfaces require cleaning, hand polishing with aluminum polish or a mild abrasive is permissable, if fiber brushes only are used and if the surface is treated following cleaning with a suitable solution of sodium dichromate.  Wipe the treated surface with dry cloths to remove excess solution, do use a water rinse.
