A Word About Pen Kit Coatings:
24kt gold plating - basic finish
Brushed Satin Finish - A very durable low luster metal coating.
Titanium Nitride (TN) - Looks just like 24kt gold but is Absolutely permanent!
Platinum Coating - It is really a Rhodium coating which is from the platinum family and is very resistant to tarnishing and scratch resistant!
This stabilization process fills the cell structure of the wood and catalyzes creating a much more durable product that can be finished to a high luster and is impervious to climactic changes because microscopic individual cells are now solid acrylic.
