Jet Black Tycoon in Rhodium

[wolf creek knives]

I finished this PSI Tycoon roller ball pen today. The pen is Rhodium plated with a Jet Black Aquapearl blank I picked up from PSI. I painted the inside of the blanks with flat black paint and used two part Epoxy dyed black to adhere the tubes (thanks for the help Chuck @Dalecamino). I rough sanded using J-weight sandpaper starting at 150 grit and ending with 800 grit. Switched to wet/dry sandpaper and finished the pen starting at 800 grit and ending with 2000 grit paper. The last finish sanding was all done with the paper wet. Final finish was completed with One Step Plastic Polish, again from PSI.
It was a fun little project. Thanks for looking.

Fantastic job on this pen Tom. It also looks to me that the fit with the parts are spot on accurate.
Thanks for sharing the photos.

I really like how the finish turned out. Very nice. Makes you want to pick it up and feel how smooth it is.

Great looking Pen well done. Although I favour wood I still appreciate Acrylic,
First class as always.
