Eguller Typhoon They fall off while clubs bang together or when they pull another club out of the bag. Yep. Even nice ones like Club Glove are easy to fall off - don't ask how I know this. π
ode You guys need to stop using the "players" type iron and come.over to the chunky cavity back side, cuz my iron covers ain't going nowhere?
Walterjn Tinker that I could actually see a use for iron covers... Driving around I'm sure that those heads chatter against each other. The covers would keep everything quiet.
azgreg rsvman2 I love using a head cover for my putter but I keep losing it! The putter or the cover?
LBlack14 Gonna dredge up this thread, looking for advice from those "in the know". Got this putter head from @KCee a while ago, with intentions of refinishing it. I finally got around to sand blasting it clean, today. I really like how it looks now/raw. Can I put some type of clear coat on it and leave it as is, but add paintfill or how would I go about it and how the hell do you clean paintfill in the tight spots, like the back of the cavity and the sight lines on the back flange? Also, how do you clean up paintfill without taking off paint and clear or whatever?
KCee LBlack14 Ooh I like that raw look! If I had stripped it, I might have kept it lol! I have no clue about coating it though and what an acetone wipe (to clean excess paint fill) would do.
LBlack14 KCee don't know what it is, but when it's in the sunlight, it has sparkles. Can't tell from the pics though.
Par4QC LBlack14 but when it's in the sunlight, it has sparkles Combo of aluminum and zinc, probably. When you got all the weight in the bottom, the rest has to be lightweight. Take a toothpick with some stripper to get that paint out. I Liiike It!!
LBlack14 Par4QC Take a toothpick with some stripper to get that paint out. I Liiike It!! There is no paint. It's blasted clean.
Eguller Dental assistants have left over metal, dental picks that are very handy for that and cleaning grooves that are ummmm difficult. They readily hand them out as they have to dispose of them anyway in my experience.
darpar LBlack14 I meant cleaning the paintfill Take a paper towel and fold it so it has a flat surface to it. If just going over an unpainted surface you can use acetone rubbing lightly, if going over a painted surface use some alcohol on the paper towel shortly after you do the paint fill. The trick is to go ACROSS the lettering or sight line not with it. Use a paint pen with an oil base or lacquer paint that has a medium tip. Don't paint the face either if you decided to coat the whole head.
Eguller Let the paint set for a bit but not dry and use an acetone wipe quickly over it. Takes just a bit of practice.
LBlack14 darpar can I clear coat it and then do paint fill and clean up the paint fill without removing the clear coat?
sdandrea1 LBlack14 how the heck would I get in the cavity, cuetips? What @darpar and @Eguller described should work in the cavity, Landon. You'll have to fold a smaller wipe to fit. If you use a paint fill marker with a small or medium tip and try to fill JUST the letters, there won't be to much over spill to clean. Let it ALMOST dry and wipe (don't press) lightly. What is left can be cleaned with a razor, or dental pick. Those tight spots take practice. The good news is, you can start over many times.
Bravopilot sdandrea1 Paint qualifies as "whatever", seems to me you produced a demo tape of geezer arts and crafts on the Holy Grail of putters. I know, I know, painful memories of a betπ
Bravopilot sdandrea1 These directions can easily be applied in many situations by geezers. Good thing Mr LBlack14 is a young one.π
