[DeTomaso] Campagnolo Paint preparation

[michael@michaelshortt.com]

I'm certainly no metallurgist, just curious. especially given the dubious
nature of heating Mag into a state of white hot fire that can't be put out
easily,
Where is the fine line between getting it hot and causing it to light up.

Just curious, I know nothing, looking to learn.

Thanks,

Michael

I found this online ( wiki )

Stages of annealing
There are three stages in the annealing process, with the first being the
recovery phase, which results in softening of the metal through removal of
crystal defects (the primary type of which is the linear defect called a
dislocation) and the internal stresses which they cause. Recovery phase
covers all annealing phenomena that occur before the appearance of new
strain-free grains.[3] The second phase is recrystallization, where new
strain-free grains nucleate and grow to replace those deformed by internal
stresses.[3] If annealing is allowed to continue once recrystallization has
been completed, grain growth will occur, in which the microstructure starts
to coarsen and may cause the metal to have less than satisfactory mechanical
properties.[
