Yes it is possible. I’ve done it using tsp, water, aluminum foil, and an adjustable voltage power supply. If you go on YouTube and search how to anodize titanium, the same method applies. I used [this](https://youtu.be/FcZYfUM756U) video

Ti is neat cause you can also go low tech and just hit it with heat. Depending on the color you want you can do some neat stuff. Obviously the more complex method yields more interesting results.
