Paging Kelly...Need Some Help

HybridWood

While practicing on my putter mat which lies on top of the concrete floor in the basement, ol' butterfingers dropped his shiny new putter 😐:

@LogicalOne Kelly, you have any red touch-up paint to get this ugly orange off this beautiful putter? 🤣

Can't see it at address so I guess I'll survive! Putts still roll smoothly. 😁

HybridWood You drop it on top of a chisel?

LogicalOne

HybridWood Oh no!!!! 😲 I wish I did have some for you. You might be able to go to a hardware store and maybe they will something that will work on 6061 aluminum. Unfortunately, concrete will win probably 100% of the time against aluminum. 🙁

Maybe nail polish?

I think you'd have a really hard time matching that same color.
What you could do is round off the other corner to match this side.
Being aluminum it's pretty easy to polish to a mirror finish and then
you could do a transparent matte or even a candy red finish.

Here's a friends old Bettinardi (similar thick shape) that I did some woop-woop to,
and powder coated a candy red....if you want a one of kind putter!

HybridWood

meagain Nope, the concrete floor. Putter must be made of soft steel.

HybridWood

LogicalOne No worries...wasn't expecting you to have any paint. Just a warning to my GB brothers to treat this finely-tuned instrument with care!

Thanks for the suggestion...will look into it.

Drop it on the other corner. You'll have symmetrical chips. It'll be a feature vs damage. 😉

That's the spirit!
When I was a kid my brother had a saying, 'if you can't fix it, break it 'til it looks right.'

Try to match it up to some automotive rattle can spray. Spray it into a cup or the cap and quickly dip a small brush into it and dab it on a little at a time. Quickly remove any excess on the good paint. If the head is powder coated avoid using any acetone as it might also remove the original paint. An auto parts store might also have a small bottle of touch up paint with a built in brush like toenail polish.

This is a Golf HOing Blog/site, right. I vote to buy another putter from LogicalOne and donating the "damaged" one to First Tee. Just a thought. This is why I bought two.🤔

LogicalOne

Bravopilot I actually have one last red one available that I saved too! 🙂

Bravopilot

LogicalOne See how easy that is?

Subsonic

Doesn't everybody buy at least two of everything?!

Bravopilot

Subsonic Only when one buys the wrong color thinking they bought another. Too arrogant to admit a mistake.

I bought two of them. Had to buy a 2nd one because I sold the 1st one out of my bag.😁

Wear your battle scars with pride. Did you drop that putter on the concrete? No. You hit a bear with it. Problem solved.

Mattyv I got 3 myself. Already presented 1 for a birthday, and the other extra will be given away when season opens here. Keeping them in the family though. No one will out-putt us!! 😉
