About the product
Titan Oxiron Martelé is the most exclusive and decorative anti-rust enamel finish in the Oxiron range — a bright hammered metallic effect that reproduces the characteristic texture of hammered metal, with reflections and visual depth that no other smooth enamel can imitate. Formulated with styrenated alkyd resins, it allows direct application on steel without primer, with the fastest drying time in the range — touch-dry in 15–30 minutes and recoatable in 1 hour — and weather resistance for up to 10 years. Its 7 exclusive metallic colors (Gold, Copper, Silver Gray, Dark Gray, Brown, Beige, and Black) transform any iron element into a decorative piece with high visual impact. Available in 750ml and 4L.
What surfaces and projects is it ideal for?
- ✓ Gates, grilles, and fences where a decorative finish with high visual impact is desired
- ✓ Stair, balcony, and terrace railings in ornamental wrought iron
- ✓ Streetlights, posts, and decorative metallic street furniture
- ✓ Metal entrance doors and artistically designed gates
- ✓ Metal furniture for gardens, terraces, and hospitality spaces
- ✓ Interior decorative elements: lamps, frames, wall lights, and metal furniture
- ✓ Interior design projects where a handcrafted metallic finish is sought for iron elements
- ✓ Cranes, bridges, and structures where anti-corrosion protection is combined with a premium finish
Why choose Titan Oxiron Martelé
- ✓ Bright hammered effect — unique in the Oxiron range — the hammered texture creates thousands of micro-facets that reflect light irregularly, generating a visual effect of depth and movement that no smooth enamel can reproduce; each viewing angle offers a different look
- ✓ 7 exclusive metallic colors — Gold, Copper, Silver Gray, Dark Gray, Brown, Beige, and Black; a palette not available in any other product in the range; warm metallic tones (Gold, Copper) and cool (Silver Gray, Dark Gray) offer options for any decorative style
- ✓ Fastest drying in the range — 15–30 minutes to touch — beats Smooth Gloss (30–60 min) and Forged (4–5 h); recoatable after 1 hour; most jobs completed in a single day
- ✓ Direct application on steel without primer — no special prior preparation required; the styrenated alkyd formulation creates the anti-corrosive layer directly on the metal, halving the work compared to two-coat systems
- ✓ Weather resistance up to 10 years — certified anti-corrosion protection; the hammered texture, like smooth finishes, resists rain, humidity, UV rays, and temperature changes in continuous outdoor exposure
- ✓ Texture hides metal imperfections — the hammered effect conceals dents, dings, welds, and superficial oxidation marks better than any smooth finish; especially useful in the restoration of old gates with surface deterioration
- ✓ High hardness and resistance to knocks and scratches — the cured film withstands intensive outdoor use; the hammered finish maintains its visual appearance even under high abrasion conditions

How to apply — in 4 steps
- Prepare the surface: remove poorly adhered rust with a wire brush or sandpaper. It is not necessary to reach bare metal. Degrease with TITAN MR Thinner to remove oils and greases. Dry completely before applying.
- Prepare the product: shake well before use — metallic pigments tend to settle. For brush and roller, apply directly without diluting. For spray gun, dilute with TITAN MR Thinner. Do not over-dilute to avoid losing the hammered effect.
- Apply with a natural bristle brush for the best hammered effect — the brush distributes the product irregularly, enhancing the characteristic texture. With a foam roller, the effect is more uniform but loses some visual depth. Apply in thin coats; the hammered effect develops during drying. Do not rework areas that have already begun to dry.
- Recoat window: between 1 and 6 hours at 23°C. If this period is exceeded, wait 5 days before the second coat. Clean tools with TITAN MR Thinner immediately after use.
Do not apply at temperatures below +5°C or above +35°C, or in rain or with relative humidity above 85%.

Martelé vs Forged vs Satin vs Gloss
Martelé: bright hammered effect with exclusive metallic colors — the most decorative and artistic. Forged: rough texture with a classic wrought iron look — 7 colors. Satin: smooth with a soft sheen, the most elegant. Gloss: smooth with maximum shine, widest range of colors.
⚠️ Recoat window
Martelé has a recoat window of 1 to 6 hours. If exceeded, you must wait 5 full days. Unlike Gloss (max. 4h), Martelé gives more leeway — but you still need to plan to avoid going outside the window.
Application conditions and limitations
Do not apply at temperatures below +5°C or above +35°C, or in rain or with relative humidity above 85%. Do not over-dilute — it reduces the hammered effect and anti-corrosion protection. Do not rework areas that have already begun to dry; it ruins the visual effect. In case of advanced rust with section loss, clean down to bare metal. Flammable product — keep away from heat sources.
