BOS golf Misted Aquamarine Finish - Before & After - Bettinardi BB8 raw


Recommended Posts

For anyone ever wondering what BOS golf's misted aquamarine finish looks like......well here you go.  I hated to finish off this raw Bettinardi, but I could not keep it from rusting.  I know that is probably the idea but I've been wanting to use BOS for a while and this seemed like the perfect opportunity.  Huge shout out to Sherry at BOS for awesome communication and updates.  So happy with how it turned out, smallest bit of rainbow hue on the flange from address, hard to see in photos.  Enjoy!!! Snagged a new head cover for it as well!!

Yeah, it really is.  Can’t wait to get it glued up and try it out.

FYI that putter will still rust if you don't keep it oiled.  That is still technically a "raw" head with a dark finish applied over it.

I wondered that.  I have some putter butter from when it was raw but i seems to just dry and evaporate.  Any oils that you recommend?

When you get it done some outdoor pictures would be great.

Though much is taken much abides;
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

First of all...the putter does look better imo. 

 

I'm not sure if that is in fact their aquamarine finish. It seems like a polymer type coating or something similar. Hard to tell from the pictures. I always thought their aquamarine was more of a blue...similar to oil can finish. 

 

This is what I remember it looking like...

Has a little bit of a blue hue to it.  Definitely dark, even a little gray in some light!!

Thanks, it really does.  Very happy with it. I do already notice some changes happening, blemishing from having it in a cover.  I didn’t even think it got wet.
