Putter repair and refinish recommendation

I have a tei3 Newport 2 long neck i need to get fixed and refinished. Looking for any recommendations you guys have to do this for me. I'll include pictures and let everyone see the task at hand. Just looking to get this thing back to its original glory.

Mods if this isn't in the right spot feel free to move it. Wasn't exactly sure where to post

For this model I would go with BOS.

I hear good things about Continental golf

Google BOS putter refinish and it will pop up.

I live in Greenville NC, where are they located? I saw you're in NC too

The top line is so damaged, I'm not sure this one can be salvaged. The insert is so close to the top line, I don't think it can be done. I know the Cameron Custom Shop wouldn't touch it.

I noticed that too but thought maybe it could be milled a little to tighten it up a bit. Not sure of the process but figured worth asking

If it can be restored, expect to lose 20 grams of total weight.

They are in raliegh, funny you are in Greenville I live in Wilson, but my wife and I are both ECU graduates

They used to be called Carolina custom golf they have been in the same spot for years, you should just take it up there to them and ask tbh I'm sure you go to raliegh here and there it will save you shipping as well lol

Losing a little weight isn't going to be the end of the world for me

I actually live between Wilson and Greenville lol. Just easier to say Greenville for people not in the area. That may actually be what I do is take it to them and see if they can help me out

Keep us posted. I will be interested to see how it turns out whoever does the work.

BOS is the only shop I'd let touch it. It's my understanding they originally applied the oil can finish to that very putter, and they can return it to near new. Yours is a bit roughed up, but you'll be amazed at the results.

Patina oil is the original finish. I"ve sent 3 heads to them, all Tei3's, and I can't speak highly enough of their work.

Wow that's crazy I used to play that course song with Ayden and Greenville cc when I was in college with my professors alot, in the 90's mostly, been a while, how is FCC holding up?

Not to bad. A few greens had a spot or 2 but overall not bad especially for a small country club in the country

Agree. Heavy damage. On the insert too. No realistic way to remove the dents without a LOT of material removal.

I will let you know what I hear back from the places I have sent pictures to. If it can fixed I wont worry as much about the removed material, I can add back if needed and if I just can't use it that light my gf probably will love it

The insert is completely unusable. Too much damage.

Talked to NorCal putters who are a really good crew and thinking it can be fixed but going to leave limited finish options after milling the face down some to get rid of the damage. Chance I will lose my face engravings as a product of the damage to the head. Still waiting to hear back from a few other shops and will keep the post updated.

That's a lot of material removed. Did they give you an idea on weight loss?

Not yet. Still doing some figuring, says I shouldn't "lose" them but for sure going to be more shallow. Waiting to hear back from BOS and Continental also.

Perhaps you'll be better off giving it a good clean and using it "as is".

Some of the guys are right on about how much it will take.

That is one thing I have thought about if it just will be to much work and money to get it fixed. Still putts fine, wanted it to look as good as it felt lol

This is the tricky part about restoring putters. If the head is badly dinged up so much metal has to be removed the weight becomes too light. Insert putters are especially difficult if dings go down to the insert top line. Good luck with the project. Hopefully one of the recommendations can do a good job for you. This is a classic Scotty.
