I've never lost an iron cover, of any kind, in my life. It's not that difficult.

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?

    ode Isn't there a rule we have to have at least one set of each type?😉

    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.

    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?








      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.

        KCee don't know what it is, but when it's in the sunlight, it has sparkles. Can't tell from the pics though.

          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!!

            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.

            There is no paint. It's blasted clean.

            I meant cleaning the paintfill I use. There's zero paint left.

              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 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.

                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 bet😁

                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.

                  darpar can I clear coat it and then do paint fill and clean up the paint fill without removing the clear coat?
