Flame Grilled Putters

Putter Finish

Hi guys,

Just wanted to share a few pics of some putters I have re-finished.

This finish is simply a butane flame kissed finish and it turns the putters from their normal stainless silver to a nice toasted gold. If you go hotter and longer you can get the blues and purples. I am no expert and these I simply did so they look a bit different from the norm.

Paintfill is changed and I found the brighter colours looked best on the darker gold.

Hope you like them.

LOOKS GREAT!!

WHAT DID YOU USE FOR PAINT FILL...?

[rocketrod]

Best paintfill tips I found were from Deerslayer. Just do a search he helped me loads.

 

Thanks

I like what you did with the Wilson TPA XVIII. How did you flame that with the rough black finish still on it? Is there any additional process?

 

Cheers

I had to remove the black finish as it was a bit messy when I got it.

Put on a few coats of a paint remover and just scraped off the finish. Then cleaned it up with wire wool, sand paper. Once it was clean I torched it with the butane. Its probably my favotite of the three.

 

thanks.

Let's see some bigger pics of the flamed Studio Select you did. They are in the other post, but they are so small, I can barely tell the tone and shades of color. Can you post some large ones in this thread for us to drool over???

Hmmmm wonder what would happen to my Rife if I flamed it, being that its an anodized finish...

Will post them tomorrow. I reduced them too small in photobucket. Sorry.

Never seen that Odyssey Proto #3 before now, looks pretty cool. Love that finish too, nice work.

can someone point me in the right directions on how to do this? was there/is there a thread?

 

i remember seeing your thread about the s.s. that was torched, i would love to give mine a shot!

Here are some more pics of the Scotty I did the same way. It is so easy to do all you need is a butane tourch. Just strip the head of its paint fill then pull the shaft. After that simply go over the head with the blue flame of the tourch. If you go longer you will start to get the blues and purples like this Scotty. If you really go a long time it will start to go all black. If I can do it anyone can but I love the way it makes them look.

C'mon man, let's see some big pictures like the ones at the top of this post. These are the same size pics that are in the other post just stacked on top of another instead of side by side.

 

You're killing me. I want to see some large pics of the SS flamed. That thing is sweet, but the pics are so small it looks brown instead of any golds and blues.
