    hey, I am new to this site. I am getting an xpole xpert soon, a 45mm and I’m thinking of getting TG finish. My skin is normal (not dry) and doesnt sweat a lot. Is titanium gold proper for me? Also I saw some videos… does tg finish wear off?? thank you;)

    I would go with the TG, it seems to be (for most) better for grip…

    I have a 45mm titan gold and 45mm chrome.   What happened was I had a 50mm titan gold few years ago and wanted a 45mm, BUT I bought it in chrome.  Within few months I bought the 45mm in titan gold.  Now depending on weather, etc. determines if I use the chrome or titan gold.  Everyone skin type is different, weather is a factor, temperatue of room etc.    But titan gold is great and there are different opinions of finish wearing off.  A few said it's just the finish and doesn't affect the grip.  Good luck, getting a pole is awesome!

    The titanium gold is my favorite finish of them all. I have had mine for a few years now and its my most heavily used pole, the finish has not worn off. BUT, I think the finish wearing off is a body/skin chemistry and possibly grip aid use issue. I had someone over and they used my pole, the finish where they did most of their pole work was lighter after they used it. They used itac. I have also tested out itac and found it seemed to change the color of the pole. I do not normally use any grip aids, so other than those 2 situations my pole is fine and still super grippy!
