My first torch job! And now SECOND!


Recommended Posts

I have been wanting to do this for sometime and finally got a few nights to go through the process. This is my first torch job and I am very pleased with how it came out. I went with all black paintfill as I love the look of the gloss black on a torched head. I have added a few before pics, as this was a Select model that was initially black which was bead blasted off. Let me know what you guys think...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's right I did it again! This time with a friends beat up del mar. Stripped her, sanded her, torched her, and painted her! Let me know what you think

Thanks guys! I agree, I loved the bead bleast look for awhile but I wanted something unique. Now my buddies won't stop blowing up my phone wanting me to work on their flatsticks!

How long did you torch it for to get that look?

I combined a few methods, baked it in the oven @ 500*F for 1 hour then hit it with MAPP gas torch for about 10 minutes following.

I remember that putter! LOL.

Nice job! I think the torching looks phenomenal and better than the original finish I put on the putter.

Thanks Buddy! Ya I was a little hesitent to do it to this putter because it was sooo pristine from the get go with a nice bead blast finish...but my curiosity got the better of me :)

Thank you! I did not dip it in anything, just did the bake and torch and let cool naturally over night. I think some people complicate the process too much with things like that.

Thanks! I had that in mind a bit when I was planning it, I just wanted to get a few hints of purple so it would be my own. And I'm a sucker for black paintfill, my Newport 2 is bead blast finish with all black paintfill as well :)

Looks great. I haven't torched a SS putter yet, but want to try. Carbon steel is what i usually stick to.

[/quote]Quenching in oil is generally when torching carbon steel to keep it from rusting, not really for stainless.
