If you had to pick a coating that you had to use on all materials swuch as alum, brass, copper, steel, stainless. What would you use? I personally liked tin for a while but I noticed alum likes to stick to it. I am starting to like more and more Tialn. It cuts really nice, and I noticed my spindle loads are always lower. I used to always have a load of 40-42 percent on a particular tool and now it is always 33-35 percent. Same job same machine. Does Tialn have any drawbacks, downsides?? I am thinking of only stocking tialn endmills and no uncoated endmills.
 
I use tialn,seems to have taken over from tin coat,on milling cutters,
I use a 8mm ball nose e/mill on one job,EN24t,high tensile steel,its lasted twice as long as a tin coated cutter did,
They are a bit more expensive,thats the downside
