Cleaning Titanium. While titanium is tough, durable and rust and corrosion resistant in harsh conditions, it is still susceptible to tarnishing and requires regular, though little cleaning and maintenance. Titanium is a metal that is easy to maintain, mainly in part because of its unique titanium oxide barrier.

The corrosion resistance of titanium alloys primarily relies on the highly protective oxide film on the surface, which effectively guards against attacks in both acidic and chloride-containing solutions. However, dissolution may occur in reducing acids.
Titanium alloys are often used in highly corrosive environments because they are better suited than most other materials. The excellent corrosion resistance is the result of naturally occurring surface oxide films that are stable, uniform, and adherent.
Titanium's corrosion resistance is based on the formation of a stable, protective oxide layer.
