Before and After (or "Touched up the Ano")

[Sharperthansticks]

Got a Fortis 2.0 and the ano wasn't looking that great, so I decided to touch up the show scale. Used 81V. Here was the before:

Here is the after:

Here is my ano setup, including power supply, ano bath, distilled water rinse, medicine bottle of Multi-Etch (for stripping ano and oxides), rock tumbler for refinishing, burnishing liquid, and other supplies:

Total time taken, including disassembly, soaking in cold Multi-Etch for about 6 minutes, and so forth: about 20 minutes.

Did you stonewash then ano?

Did you stonewash then ano?

Didn't need to. Just ano'd at 81V, and it came out perfect. The pocket clip was trickier; I had to adjust the voltage slightly to get it to match.

Just looks like there's more of a stonewash pattern under the ano in the second pic.

I know. It's probably a slight variation in lighting. I just gave the guy a dip in the ano, so the scale certainly didn't lose ano on any part.
