Does anyone know how its done? I am stumped…
Is it masking? Is it a thermal expansion process?

if it was thermal expansion there would be physical cracks in the material lol

Fair fair
I think you paint it on with like nail polish or similar and then give it a non acetone nail polish soak and scrub to remove the nail polish mask. that’s based purely off me googling and no prior experience ha.
I know as far as painting things there’s a particular paint that naturally makes the crackle finish. No clue when it comes to anodizing.
Is this the same process?
The un-faded black lines are interesting.
@AngryGumball did this TiNY continue to fade?
That is probably down to the coating technique rather than the technique used to achieve the cracking mask right?
I ordered some acrylic crackle medium, should be in on Friday. So we’ll see!

Mainly at the rims, basically friction wear from being in a pocket.
Cracks remain as they are.
