Filling my Vokey wedges, 425 R7, Baffler, and MP30's right now- ill post pics when I finish- Thanks for all the great ideas in previous posts/pics!!

[purgasoj]

ok here are my clubs so far....

I actually find nail polish to be the most durable as well. (even did my number stamps in the sole, and they are holding up great)

I do however put a clearcoat type nailpolish on at the end to seal things up and make those paintfills nice and shiny.

 

As for removale of excess....make sure it's completely dry. Then I use nailpolish remover (acetone) and a q-tip. Dip the q-tip in the acetone, then squeeze out any excess, then rub back and forth lightly to remove excess paint fill.

Thanks. I'll have to try that next time. I've been using a paper towel and acetone.

 

Anyone know if you can use something to polish the chrome finish on a forged club?

Ok... So I'm an impatient person. I was going to work on my new Hogans over the winter but I couldn't wait. As some may know I recently purchased some
'88-'89 Hogan Edge Forged irons, 3-E. Here's what the original colour scheme looks like:

This isn't mine. Just a photo of one.

Mine needed a little scrubbing. I Cleaned them up, stripped the paint and voila!

This is my first real paint fill attempt. I did a practice run on one of my old Bounce Soles. Tell me what ya think.

The paint fill job looks good. You might have filled in a bit more on the sole number.
But... it just doesn't seem right putting those colors on a set of classic Hogans...
I would have stuck with the original color scheme and filled the "Forged" in black. But that's just me:)

Does acrylic paint work or is enamel based better?

Thanks, ApexGrind. I just did what I thought looked cool. If I get tired of it I can always put it back to original.

Enamel is better.

If your club has flat/oxide black finish, how do you remove the excess pain when it dried? Wouldn't it mess up the black finish?

I'm planning on redoing paintfill on my irons with flat black finish, I'm worried I might mess up the finish when removing the excess paint after it dried.

Joe, how didn't you have that problem when you were doing the Vokey wedges in your post?

Any comments?

My nike sv wedge has a black finish but its fine. I used nail varnish remover to remove any excess paint that I didn't want and hasn't effected the black finish whatsoever.

I've been working on these for a while to add them. This is my first fill job. It is actually the first set that I built. So, these are my babies. My wife thinks I'm crazy.

[Boosty16]

What type of paint did you use for your lime green paint fill??? Enamel, Acrylic, Nail Polish? And what exact color is it and who makes it...Thanks

[bkricker]

Running a butane tourch over the paint fill is a quick, easy way to get the old stuff out. works great, melt and wipe away.

Paintfilled my Scotty... with school colors. My first painfill job. The gold looks a LOT better really than it does in the pictures. I redid the "Titleist" on the face with black paint.

Bridgestone GC Mids, I painted over the black discs with a silver Shairpie.

[Lngnokr71]

My CG10's I finished yesterday. Done in red, orange and silver... The putter logo has been changed from red to orange to match the shaft and headcover...

This is a cool thread. It gave me many ideas.

 

I am going to do my Mizuno wedges. I got all the old paint off yesterday and will start filling it in today. Will post some pics in the next few days.

That's a cool looking putter.

2 tone looks good, nice job

[mw_golf]

T.J.K. Definitely more in focus with the new paintjob :tongue:

But seriously, nice work -- understated and not garish!!

I know. I forgot to do a before picture, and just took that one before I scraped out the old paint. I only took one picture cause I was ready to get the paint out. It looked focused on my small camera screen :ok:

 

Thanks for the compliments.

[Bite Bite]

Here are some old Mizuno MP 29's and my Cleveland Lob Wedge. This was my first go at painting but I think I did pretty well.

 

*Working on a 975D now

[SnapFade2]

hers my first go at this i will have some more soon

[marrigo]

Well, I just couldn't resist after seeing all the posts here. Besides, nothing to do until spring anyway. Today was the putters, woods, and hybrids.
