Colour of titanium? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tan

'colour' is the definition.
(tan is a kind of colour)

'of titanium?' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'TAN' can be found hidden inside 'titanium'.

(Other definitions for tan that I've seen before include "Bark!" , "The colour of sunburn" , "Convert hide to leather" , "Catch the sun" , "Go brown" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
