Default is it possible to burn a polished aluminum shift **** to make colors? if not what about coloring?

I just picked up a DC sports polished silver shift **** at no cost.. but the top if scratched from a ring.. i've noticed a **** on passwordjdm that was "super burnt" to create a cool color effect.. is it possible to do on this aluminum ****? if not how could I re-color the aluminum properly?

here's a pic of the burnt **** I mentioned

Its titanium thats why it burned like that. Aluminum will not burn like that.
