Black Oxide Kit on Carbon Steel

Posted by admin on October 2nd, 2009 at 11:08pm

Hi,

I am using Caswell Black Oxide on a piece of Carbon Steel that I am using to make a piece of jewelry from. The solution works perfectly and turns the Steel jet black.

The problem is that the piece after it has blackened gives off a putrid smell. There is nothing that I can do to get rid of the smell. I have tried to use Carbon Steel from two different vendors but both give off the same smell.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Vikas
