question for you brotha! on the futura how do you remove the black paint. Is it anondized? could i just use easy off oven cleaner to get it off? i dont have a bead blaster so i cant do that!
It's anodized. I use a sandblaster to remove it, but there maybe be chemicals that would remove the finish, but sadly I don't have any experience with that process
Hi Dan! Just found your channel. I recently stumbled upon an old Scotty Cameron in pretty beat up condition. I have thought about doing some refinishing, but am intimidated by it after the research I’ve done. Do you do work for others?
Dodo put a video on Facebook 5 years ago, I shared it on my page, because I thought it was amazing, it came up in my facebook memories today... and now I'm wondering how Vulcan and Cali are doing 5 years later
I know they are old videos but can I go from the sandblaster to paint and can you maybe explain in short what to do. I have a blaster just wondering if I can blast then paint
Yes, it is possible to blast then paint, in fact its recommended. I would use 100 grit or finer to get a smooth finish. There are some variables in this question, the required blast media and needed finish may vary based on the type of paint you are applying. I stopped powder coating about a year ago and use Cerakote now, which requires a very specific prepping process.
Hey Dan, I was hoping to revive an old Anser 4 from the 90s. I've watched all your videos to see if I could DIY but my current situations limit me from doing all of the powder coating. Wanted to see of you'd be interested in letting me send it to you and you doing your magic? All the best🤙🏻
Hey Dan great video. What specific grinding wheel do you use? The one I have is rock hard and would not be a very nice finish so just curious what you use. Thank you
God Bless you, I am proud of you, and so sorry, terribly sorry for your loss. Thank you for giving this baby all the love in the world. I appreciate the heaviness of the hurt laid on you. Lifting you and yours in prayer right now.
Thanks for posting this! I’m going to put a black shaft and going to black out my Yes Dianna. Need to mask out the C Grooves which should be interesting
Cool, now do it with a standard steel/stainless steel, Anser/Newport style putter. The putter you are showing looks to be brass, which is extremely soft, and it's flat.
yo dude thank you so much i have this exact scotty and had no idea what kept the insert in. the silicone on my face was starting to chip out and i had no idea what it was. i thought it was like a white little rubber band or something. you are the man just finished it
@@justdan5735 when I removed the insert, there was a clear sticky residue where the insert was seeded. I don’t know what that is, or what I should use to “replace it”. My fear is if I don’t use something, it may sit “recessed” in the litter face and not flush. I assume I can use white bathroom caulk for the outer perimeter of the insert?
@@JoshMG Gotcha. You can use a piece of double-sided tape to replace the adhesive that's behind the faceplate, which you should be able to purchase at any hardware store or online. 3M and a couple other companies make double-sided adhesive that would work. Any rubberized caulking should work to fill the gap between the insert and the putter head. My plan is to update some of these videos and go into a little bit more detail, I just have to find the time to do it. I hope this a little bit of information helps
@@justdan5735 thank you, Dan! This is great. One last thing- would you put the caulking in before adding insert back in (and letting excess ooze out the front, or would you screw insert in and try to push caulk into the “crack” around the insert after you put it in? Thanks for all the info!
Hey Dan! Thanks for a great video! Any chance you could update the last two links in the description, please? Thank you for the clarification and great video quality. Top notch! Subscribed!!!!
Dan, great videos! Do you always just paint fill your back plate rings on SC putter? Or is there somewhere you can purchase different colored plastic rings?
Dan, Is the "Createx Auto-Air Colors Candy2o Caribe Blue 4657 2oz Waterborne Custom Paints" ok to use on club paint fills? I have noticed with paints I used from club paint fill companies like G Paint that with repeated use and regular club washing the paint tends to fade. When re-filling do you suggest not layering paint over the factory fill? Would you suggest a Createx clear coat seal after a paint fill?
I really need to update this video. You are correct, you may have durability issues with the createx auto air paints. I would recommend sticking with Tamiya paints for your paint fill, I still wouldn't recommend paint filling over existing paint.
So it totally depends on the powder coat quality. Some hold up to acetone better than others, however, that being said, I have switched from powder coat to Cerakote because the finish is much stronger. I plan to update this video soon explaining why I no longer use powder coat on my putters
Was just curious thanks. I currently am only doing acid finishes or plating. Was contemplating powder coat or cerakote. Cerakote holds up to solvents but heard it's not very durable for a putter that you actually game with
@@shmirginhymer1867 from my experience when Cerakote is applied correctly it's extremely durable. I know a few guys who did cerakote on their gamers about 3 years ago and they're still holding up. It's definitely a more durable option than powder coat
I use fine glass bead media in my sand blaster and it does not come out this fine. It's a standard 80 grit so am curious what grit you're using and where you got it?
Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that... Paint thinner will remove the paint without removing the powder coat. Acetone breaks down some powders easier than others. I'm planning on some updated videos to address these issues
So I haven't done irons, because powder coat doesn't hold up well on hard impacts, but I'll have a bunch of videos coming out soon covering some of the new, stronger options available for blacking out putters and irons
